If you are using XP, there is no sound if you run DOS game directly. TO get the sound you need to install VDMSound or DOSBox (there are more other solutions, but try to stick to one or both of these ).

There are a lot of topics around how to install and use them, but if you need more detailed instructions or have any questions, just ask here.

Are you talking about Settlers or Settlers II?

Did you try to select all the files of the game and removing the read-only attribute from them? Just select them all, right-click on them and select properties. Below there 3 or 4 small boxes.

There's a note on how to start the game at the end of the review. Probably worth checking out
