OK, chances are that the soundcard need re-installing again, but this time
do it in Safe Mode.

Boot into Safe Mode (Press and hold the Shift key from a COLD boot - i.e a
power switch-on) Cancel the Help Centre.
Right-Click the My Computer icon on the desktop and select Properties and
choose Device Manager.

Look for ALL occurrences of Sound Cards (including games controllers) and
'Remove' them all in Device Manager.

Shut down and re-boot (cold boot) your computer into Normal Mode (boot
normally) and WinMe should re-detect your sound card and attempt to install
the correct drivers.

N.B Ensure that you have the latest WinMe drivers for your card - if you
haven't got the drivers associated with your sound card (may have been
supplied on a separate CD) - check the card manufactures web site and
download them if necessary - direct the setup wizard to the location of the
'new drivers'

All being well you should have your sound back again.
