Check for the device in device manager. For accessing Device Manager you can right click on "My Computer" and goto Properties. And goto Hardware TAB--> Device Manager.

Check for the "Audio Video and Game Controllers" and check the properties to see the status. It should say. "This device is working properly."
Also do you see video when you play a DVD?
