    Did you try different date?
    Also, try system restore from safe mode.

    For the future reference...
    I highly recommend, you use Erunt: http://www.larshederer.homepage.t-online.de/erunt/ as system restore supplement.

    In my opinion, it's better, then System Restore, and I use it on all my Windows versions.

    Did you download your sound driver online? on what website? Try posting your Windows Error Reporting. Click Start, Run ,Type msinfo32, OK, Go to Software Environment, Click on Windows Error Reporting. Post also your Sound Device on Components, click the + sign and click Sound Device.

      Run services.msc and see if system restore service is running.
