Probably you have to, yes.  You can download my "quick and dirty 
renamer" application (for Mac -- from the Soft section of my website: 
see signature).  It will a.o. let you add a suffiix, like ".exs" to 
files.  Just pick the Sampler Instruments folder as target and click 
'go'.  Less than a minute work...

Weird -- the EXS should always find any samples it needs.  Check to 
see if in the PC EXS preferences it's set to scan _all_ connected 
volumes and not just some of them...
