Idiot user cannot get audio working

I have Sonar X1 and an Alienware laptop.  I am not good enough at this to get my audio working.  It did for awhile but, today I started Sonar and poked around trying to remove the latency.  I did not solve so I closed without saving.  Now, when I run Sonar, I cannot get any sound.  I'm sure one of you can walk me through this if you are willing.  I tried the store where i bought my keyboard and they won't touch my laptop.
Please help.  I just wanted to put something together and have wasted 3 hours getting nowhere.

    ...and what are your laptop specs?
    What/how are you doing? Recording a keyboad with a microphone? What kind of microphone?

    Is your soundcard selected as the recording and playback timing master? Are its drivers selected in the in/out drivers box?

    (BTW, this is the forum for SONAR 8.5 and earlier, but nevermind).

    SONAR PE 8.5.3, Asus P5B, 2,4 Ghz Dual Core, 4 Gb RAM, GF 7300, EMU 1820, Bluetube Pre  -  Kontakt4, Ozone, Addictive Drums, PSP Mixpack2, Melda Creative Pack, Melodyne Plugin etc.
    The benefit of being a middle aged amateur is the low number of years of frustration ahead of you.
