Vista Tutorial - Can't enable speakers

While installing a recording device, I disabled two different speaker
configurations in Vista Home Premium. Now when I go back to enable them,
they aren't even listed in sound devices, or anywhere else. Nothing hI have
been able to do has been able to find those speakers! In XP and earlier
versions, when you disabled something, you just went back to that menu and
enabled it. I can't get my sound back, and I can't find any acknowledgement
of my spealkers. Soundcard diagnostics indicate it is "operating properly"
(except for actiually producing sound, of course).

Help! I miss my music!

I can't believe how quickly you responded. And it worked! Thanks a million.
