Make sure you check the box that says "record sound" or something similar.
Maybe closing any media players (eg Windows Media PLayer, Realplayer, even Youtube) will do the trick.

Apart from that, I have no idea what to suggest.

Do you have the full version of FRAPS. I think you can only record sound with it.

Incorrect. Big grin

With the trial version the only limitations are the watermark and a 30-second time limit for recording movies. (AFAIK)

I have this same problem, and mine is caused by the design of the integrated audio circuitry on my motherboard - it can't record directly from line-out.

Try playing some music on your computer (anything with any program, just something to get sound out of your speakers). Find the sound recorder in the accessories submenu under the Start menu, and press record. If you don't hear anything while playing it back, then you probably have the same problem as me. You might try looking at some settings in the control panel just to be sure; FRAPS help will tell you where to go.
