1) PC general - are the speakers attached? (check the plugs are pushed in)
2) PC general - is the sound muted or minimised to 0 in the control panel?.
- If there is a volume dial on the speakers - check those too.
-
test the above with one of the windows supplied sound files
Game:
3) Go into game data/sounds and double click on various sound files, once 1&2 are sorted - do these play? (if not - there is a problem with the data)
4) If there are no sounds,
or the sounds are only the old MP3 (which were retired since some folks had problems with bad CODECS) then you missed a patch (or installed it somewhere else) with the newer (older) WAV format..
5) open sounds.ini and ensure it's in the format

Ie - it is the new one with sounds pointed at the WAV format files. (If not - a patch or more has been misapplied)
(The sounds play fine on my windows 7 laptop BTW - checked that then silenced them as I am a "no sound" type)
