How do you enable sound after disabling it?

First let me say I built a MAME cabinet with this computer. A MAME cabinet is basically a computer put into a video arcade machine, hooked to the monitor, and wired to arcade controls so that you can play arcade games off of MAME through the cabinet.

Okay then, I was cleaning up my computer to make only the essentials run when my computer started up and I disabled most of the unneeded servies and such and uninstalled and deleted most of the programs and windows components on my computer. I accidentiyl disabled the sound and haven't been able to fix it since. When I start up my computer I don't even get the tray icon on the taskbar which I'm guessing is the component I need to be running to get sound.

Does anyone have any idea what the culprit could be?
 
Something to try:

Go to control panel, then system, then hardware, then device manager.

Try to find your sound card or sound device there. Right click on it, then select enable. If that doesn't work, uninstall it, and try again. Best of luck.

Also, this may be dumb, but go to accessories, then entertainment, then volume control.....make sure the damn thing isn't muted.

I'll try both but I'm pretty sure the sound card is enabled and working. I'll try the second one... As foolish as it sounds it could be rigt.

Thanks.
