Answer
Is the header for the front panel audio connected to the mobo correctly? Did you download Windows 7 audio drivers from the website for your system? If your mobo/system is 5 years old or older then the on board sound may not support Windows 7. I have run into that on a couple of older system upgrades. You may have to buy a PCI sound card and install it.
Update: I looked on the HP website and they don't have windows 7 drivers for your system.

Updated from windows 7 no long have Headphone drivers help!?
Okay so basically i've upgraded to windows 7,what a let down
I've had to instal several drivers already and im struggling to find a driver for my headphones which are skull candy
I've checked everything through system settings,even windows media player so that its meant to come through the head phones and nothing,anyone got any suggestions,would be very greatful
Earphones arent coming up thats why I know I need a driver,its only showing me "Digital audio device" on the playback menu,I tried the skullcandy website and nothing worked there,I have no idea if there is a general driver for headphones rather than doing a specific one
Answer
In the lower right corner (the Systray), right-click on the speaker icon. Then left-click Playback Devices. Then right-click Headphones and left-click Enable. No drivers needed.
-------- EDIT ---------------
Are you sure the headphones still work? Do they work with some other playback device?
Or maybe the headphone jack is disconnected from the motherboard. There should be a Line Out jack (probably on the back of the tower). Plug the phones in there. It won't sound right, but if they play at all it has to mean the headphone jack is malfunctioning.
Do you have a different set of headphones, which are known to be good, that you could try with W7.
Some of the SkullCandy phones have an on/off switch and volume control in the headphone cable. Those things are always trouble makers. Are you sure that switch is on and the volume up?
I can't imagine headphones needing a driver since they're such simple devices.
I assume you have the headphone volume turned up above zero.
