sims sound

[keats]

Hello all
firstly let me say that i have searched this site for answers
I did come accross a chap who has the same problem as i he coped a bagging from a few people who may have been able to help him but who chose to give him a hard time instead.

My problem is after installing the sims collection & no cd crack
I seem to be missing the sound. my registry gives the sound path to the HD in the correct Dir. I had heard something in the way of copying sound to the HD but it was pretty vague.

Any good advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanking you all.
