hello David
all done thank you
however all was ok up until step 7
on step 8 chimes.wav was before browse so when i entered browse i could not
get to chimes.wav
anyway i found the file i wanted and continued with the remaining steps you
gave
i closed all of this down and went to my inbox
i then sent myself a couple of test emails and all was ok.
after what seemed like a lifetime someone eventually sent a post to one of
the groups i belong to and as with the test emails the you got mail played
upon receiving of incoming email
i am going to write these steps out and save them as a word document for
future use
so once again thank you for your help and the step guide
Yvonne

Hello Rick;
yes I totally agree,
I wasn't sure, at first that,
Yvonne was using a non windows sound choice.
so, Yvonne,
try the following;
1, navigate to the folder, or, the sound file you wish to use for your
email notification.
2, once you've found the file, highlight and copy to clipboard.
3, go to desktop,
4, enter on my computer,
5, enter on local disc "c",
6, press the letter "w", until you hear windows, press enter.
7, press the letter "m"=media, press enter.
8, now paste the file from clipboard.
you should see the new sound file in the list.
alt+f4 to close.
now, to change the email notification sound in your sound scheme,
do the following;
example; you got post
>
1, start menu,
2, s=setting, then enter on control panel.
3, s=sounds&audio, press enter.
4, ctrl+tab=sounds tab
5, now tab until you hear,
tree-view, you should be at the top of the list.
6, down arrow until you hear,
new mail notification,
>> 7, now tab to browse, and press enter.
8, now tab until you hear,
chimes.wav
9, now arrow down until you hear,
yougotpost.wav
or, what ever the name of the sound is;
10, now tab, and spacebar on, play button,
if this is the sound you wish to have,
you need to enter on the okay button,
then again, tab and enter on the okay button, this will add the sound
to your current sound scheme.

Hi David,
I would place the new sound in the Windows\Media folder along with the
other event sounds for Windows.
Just a thought.
HTH,
Rick Justice

hello there;
okay, if you want to use a sound witch you've downloaded, or, have
received from someone,
example; you got post
then, you would follow steps,
1 through 7,
now, when you browse, you would look for the folder which has the sound.
open the folder,
highlight the sound, now, you can associate this sound with the email
notification,
hope this helps.
if your unable to get this, then, I'll provide other steps.

Hello there;
I'm assuming you want the,
notify.wav, instead of the new mail notification.
1, start menu,
2, s=setting, then enter on control panel.
3, s=sounds, press enter.
4, ctrl+tab=sounds tab
5, now tab until you hear,
tree-view, you should be at the top of the list.
6, down arrow until you hear,
new mail notification,
i>> 7, now tab to browse, and press enter.
8, now tab until you hear,
chimes.wav
9, now arrow down until you hear,
notify.wav,
10, now tab, and spacebar on, play button,
if this is the sound you wish to have,
you need to enter on the okay button,
then again, tab and enter on the okay button, this will add the sound
to your current sound scheme.
hope this helps.
