If visible in Device Manager, but showing a yellow triangle, is likely a driver issue... if recently applied updates, or especially Service Pack, may have a compatibility issue. In this case, go to manufacturer's website (likely Intel) and download latest driver stack and install.
If not visible in Device Manger is likely a hardware issue...either device has come loose or blown. If confident enough, oper case and check to see if device has come loose - otherwise take in for service tech to look over.
