I just started flight sim 2002, but when atc starts , there is no sound by the controllers or my copilot?, and everything is checked for sound, and the sound is up all the way, i hear every other sound except for that.

You have to hit the tilde (~) key to bring up the ATC window. One of the options there will be to tune your radio to either ATIS or the local ATC. Until you get the radio tuned, your not supposed to hear anything because you really aren't "listening"Hope this helps,Chris
