If you didn't change anything, a hardware issue is more likely than a driver issue. Also it's possible you changed some setting by accident.

Hello,
I have a problem with my speakers. I launched this morning my computer and I can't hear anything. Maybe it's the driver which is out of date but do you have other ideas ?
Thank you !!
