When yo rebuilt your computer, you should have had a thin cable from the back of the CD/DVD player to a slot on the motherboard /sound card.

Did you plug this in and if there is more than one plug for this on the sound card, is it in the right one.

Re-check both ends.

Hope you do not have your head phones connected at the front whilst trying to get sound through your speakers.

The socket at the front usually switches the back one off when you have head phones connected.
