It would help to know what OS you are running? XP/win 2000 or ?
Also is this a new laptop? check devise manager to see if they are listed or you see a yellow Question mark there.. If they are listed, double click on them or click on there properties and see if they are working or not.
have you tried installing new drivers for them?
 
hi sorry im running xp home sp2 ,second hand laptop , i have uninstalled them a number of times but still do not work , in device manager they are listed with no problems as pic shows , thanks tom

Man, since this is a second hand laptop ,Then I am afraid you will have to OPEN
it up to check inside. Somebody could of messed around with it..
