This is what you need to do to fix your sound problem:

1. Run "CMD" (command prompt - start > run > enter cmd)
2. Get to the Freight Tycoon directory
3. type "tycoon.exe -s" and press enter
4. Choose Directsound as sound source and enter the game.
5. Problem solved

If you dont know how to do this, simply reinstall the game and remember to put Directsound as sound source as the game cant pick one for you automatically.

How exactly should i do this? When I type "cmd" in run it pops up a black window where it stands "C:\Documents And Settings\Name>" What should i type in? My game directory is in C:\Program Files\Freight Tycoon

If you aren't familiar with DOS, then this should help:

1) First go to the drive your game is on if it's not on C:. Type "D:" and then enter, for example, if your game is on drive D:. If you installed the game to the default location, you don't have to worry about this.

2) Go to the directory/folder your game is in. Type cd\<directory path>. So, for the default location, type "cd\Program Files\Freight Tycoon". The "cd" stands for "call directory'' if you're wondering.

3) Now type "tycoon -s" and it'll bring up the game settings menu.
