No instructer voice ?

[Bluepaul]

New to FS after seeing a friends set up and itching to get going.

I have loaded the game twice but when I go onto pilot tuition I can hear the engine etc but I get no chat from Rod Machado. The game came from my mate who has all the instruction on his PC. My PC is 32 bit Vista and speced far higher than needed. the John and Martha videos work fine.

I have tried several lessons but none have the voice over.

Many thanks

Welcome to the forums and Flight Sim!
If you've seen the King's videos, you're apparently using FS9 (FS 2004)? In all of Rod's lessons, he gives voice instructions ALONG WITH text instructions. Are you seeing the text boxes in the upper left for sure?

For the voice part, the basic suggestion would be to check your sound settings for VOICE. (Can't remember the menu option, perhaps Options --> Settings --> Sound?) Like I said, basic suggestion, perhaps you checked that already.;)

Also make sure that if you're using only 2 speakers that you don't have surround sound chosen in either your system settings or in-game settings.
