    if you got sound when windows loads, sound when playing cds but no sound fron dvds presuming movies than must be a software problem. what program are you using for playing dvds??

    thats pretty strange.. must be your soundcard software.. try reinstalling.. or on my software.

    i click on start/programs/ then the creative, since i have a creative sound card..

    and it has a button for set defaults. that usually fixes any problem i get.
