computer trouble

I'm honestly about ready to boot the damn thing out the window. I'm very low on vitamin N and have spent the day dealing with things related to remodeling and the jobless situation. Ready to flip....

...and of course, the sound no longer works on the computer. When I reboot, the typical Windows chime works just peachy.

When I try to play a little Nuge to soothe the soul, I get this pile of bunk from my box of rocks:

Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly.

I've kicked it, rebooted it, and sprayed the f'er with WD40. Anything else I can do short of reinstalling windows or taking it out back and shooting it?
