PROBLEM SOLVED: (by "fsfox" on the fsdeveloper.com forum) It was not an FSX setting, but a realtek Soundcard driver setting, which i did not have noticed before (ever) See the screenshot and explanation, why is was not able to find it earlier: https://www.flickr.com/photos/indigo...9/16480133019/ Thanks everyone to helping me. Wishing you a nice weekend.

Hello All, I'm looking for more in-depth information on the internal FSX sound system to solve my challenge with it. What happened ? 1. After first out-of-the-dvd-box FSX installation everything worked as it should be - Theme Music played during FSX start-up - I could hear Aircraft sounds during Free Flight And i was happy 2 - I completely de installed FSX with its own de-installation program (via the Windows Control Panel) 3 - I erased the C:\program files\microsoft games\fsx... folder structure from my hard-disk 4 - I applied CCleaner, Power Tools Lite and Wise Registry cleaners (to clean op the garbage from the FSX de-installation) 5 - I reinstalled FSX for the second time: --> I had to reactivate it again, which did not go well right away due to "internet connectivity problems". --> I had to do this multiple times, before it finally worked 6 - I reinstalled FSX Acceleration Pack for the second time: --> I had to reactivate it again, which did not go well right away due to "internet connectivity problems". --> i had to do this multiple times, before it finally worked And since then, no-fsx-related-sound at all :-( ============================================================================== What have I done so far? (see the link below to FSX settings slideshow) http://www.flickr.com/photos/indigowarrior9/sets/72157651052423702/ ============================================================================== A - Tested my RealTek onboard soundchip/card via its build-in software settings menu. -> Everything works great. B - Killed the Windows 7 Voice Call Volume reduction bug, -> by setting it to "do not take any action" C - Tested Soundplaying on the Windows Operating System level -> Went ok, all sounds played well. D - Tested Soundplaying of the Windows Application level -> Played mp3 with Winamp - Ok! -> Watched .flv and .mp4 video's with VLC - Ok! -> Watch online Youtube videos via FireFox - Ok! E - Surfed the internet to gather EVERY! sound related parameter inside FSX.CFG - Did not result in any FSX-sounds by tweaking the fsx.cfg file F - Searched the FSX /ESP SDK documents - Came up empty on that issue G - Tested various sound-setting via the FSX-menus - Did not result in FSX producing any music_theme_sound or freeflight sounds H - During FreeFlight-mode, toggle the sound on/off function - Did not result in FSX producing any music_theme_sound or FreeFlight sounds (inside the cockpit and outside the aircraft) So I must come to the conclusion that FSX has (more) hidden / undocumented: - FSX.CFG parameter-value entries that control sound-creation - Registry Settings that control her sound-creation process ============================================================================== My QUESTIONS FOR YOU: 1 - Who has experienced similar WIN7, 64bit FSX sound challenges and how did you solve it? 2 - Is there a location on-line / book/ tutorial /graphic where I can learn more about the internal FSX soundsystem? 3 - Does FSX use Windows DirectX Layers for her sound creation or does it use its own, native sounds-driver? 4 - Does anyone has another hint,tips, trick, clue on how I can get FSX to produce sounds again? Thanks in advance for sharing all your answers and insights!
