Windows 7 sounds not working

[Adam Levine]

I just downloaded and installed Pidgin on Windows 7 and i get no notification sounds when i send messaged, receive messages or any of the other types of notification i made sure were checked in the preferences. mute sounds is not checked and my computers sounds are on max. i have uninstalled and reinstalled twice now and am getting extremely frustrated at the lack of support on this topic. I would appreciate some expedient help greatly.
