NO Sound in FS2004 at all in ANY feature. FS on/off sound toggle has NO effect

In order to avoid all "standard" remedy suggestions I have done the following:
Confirmed all system / sound card / volumes / playback devices / are ON and functioning properly.
(Computer sound works in ALL other computer functions except FS )

This seemed to occur immediately after downloading and installing an add-on file for F-16 sound enhancement. HOWEVER, suspecting the problem was related to that, I did the following: Removed ALL add-on files COMPLETELY from my computer. Then, performed a successful UN-install of FS, then did a "Clean" re-install from disks. STILL, NO sound in FS.

Any suggestions other than the "standard " would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Please only post one message in the best forum for your topic. I've deleted 4 duplicate messages.

Try looking here, it may help:

It's surprising to think that an aircraft sound enhancement add-on can disable the sound for the whole sim. I don't think it's that.

If you've completely uninstalled/re-installed FS2004 then that should eliminate problems with certain files being overwritten.

What sound card/system/setup do you have?

Go to: C:\users\name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FS9
open the FS9 folder and find the file fs9.CFG.
Open it in Notepad, scroll down to [SOUND] and right under that is SOUND=
Yours probably has SOUND=0, change it to read SOUND=1 and make sure you Save it!!
Open sim and sound should be back in town!
I sure hoppe this helps out people having this issue!
