it will take good knowledge of coding/decoding/packers/assembly language about the same level as that of the person who made that exe to extract the sound file from exe.only way for you is to record the sound while playing using some software/hardware.

No u can't resource hacker has limits...

the only way is to do reverse-engineering that decompiling it to get the source code/files.
but that is also tough...

u can record the sound by using a recorder.

You can extract media files from an .exe file using dissemblers . I have done few times . I think its possible but little tough for a beginner :|
