I think we need a few more details, please.

a) is your sound card working normally? ( e.g. can you play cds and get sound from other sources etc.)

b) Test your sound card by navigating to C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Sound and double-click on some of the sound files in there. (An alternative is to right-click on a sound file and use "open with" to select a media player.)

c) If all that is OK and you can hear the Sound FX and music (Sub-folders sound/music and sound/gramophone ) within SHIII through your sound card ,the next thing to check is the in-game settings.

Load SHIII and when you get to the selection screen, click on "Options" then "Sound Options". Make sure you have the rotary "switches" set to "0 Db" for a start, you can adjust later; then ensure that you have ticked (left-click) on the music check-box near top left of the Sound Options" screen - if you want to hear in-game music.

If you still can't hear anything, there may be a problem with the DMA settings etc, which are more difficult to deal with.

Please try the above and re-post if you continue to have problems.
