That is a real problem SlickStick. It is surprising the difference sound can make in this simulator.I can only start with the obvious, I am sure you have tried all this, but perhaps if we get a list of tried and not tried going, it will trigger a thought from some where else. LOLFirst have you hit the "Q", key? The "Q", key turns sound of and on. Or in the menu bar of FS2k2 click Options then make sure that Sound is checked.Next lets try OptionsSettingsSound. Make sure the sliders are pulled to the right at least halfway or more. Just to be sure I would set the sliders all the WAY to the right just to see if I could get any sound at all.Do you have sound in any other program. Make sure you can get sound in any other program, if not then your sound card or sound system may be at fault.Just a few things to start. These are the obvious and you probably have tried these. If so, put out a list of what you have tried, perhaps by looking at what you have already done, someone else may be triggered into a not so obvious thought for us.Good Luck,
