Same thing here with a Soundblaster live card.,and a gig of memory.
The music plays fine during the opening credits, but then the game goes silent once you hit the main game screen.

The first thing Id try is : Start the game from the Mech.exe file in the main folder. You won't get the intro but the game sound will probably work.

Second thing: Clear the steel.prf file also before you restart, it's in the 'Save' folder.

Third thing: If the above don't work, hope that a GURU does come by,

Good luck guys

Check your SND directory. The sounds may be enclosed in a zip archive that was not extracted during the install process.

You know I have the same problem

I have a new computer and it still does not work. I get all the sounds except for the breifings at the beginning of the mega campaigns.. I even had some techs. look into it and they cant figure it out

I see the snd folder in each campaign and when I click on one of the sounds I hear the breifing but it wont work in the game
