Audio problems are common in the later Sierra DOS SCI games. There's no single fix for all these games. If there a Windows version you can try it, first, though often there can be more problems with Sierra's Windows games than the DOS versions.

• DOSBox will give you sound.
• A DOS sound card emulator can also give you sound in your DOS games on Windows 2000/XP.
