Welcome to Microsoft Windows Forum.
I will need some more information to assist you better.
a) Are you facing this problem immediately after installing Windows 7?
b) Is the problem with both the internal and external speakers?
c) Have you checked in notification area if the mute button is turned on?

Note
Some laptops have an external volume control on the outside of the case. If you're using a laptop, check the external volume control to make sure it's not turned all the way down.
You may follow the steps mentioned below:

Step 1:   Steps to update the driver:
1) Click Start, type devmgmt.msc and press enter.
2) Expand sound card and right click on the sub item and click update driver.

You may follow the steps mentioned below:

2) In the search box, type System Restore, and then, in the list of results, click System Restore.
3) If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
