Hi Christopher

I've done all that and still no sounds. It's got me baffled also. If I ever find out the cause and get it fixed I'll let you guys know what it was.
Thanks so much for your input.

So when you go into Sounds, you're double checking that you've got sounds set up for Windows startup and shutdown, right? If you make any changes, you're saving them and making sure the updated or new sound scheme is the one that's active, right? I assume so, so this is pretty strange.

Hi Christopher,

Yes, all the other sounds are working. I can play music and I still get the sound when a download has completed. The ones that I know are missing for sure are the sounds when windows shuts down and when it comes on. Also the sound when a piece of hardware is accidentally disconnected and when it comes back on line I did check the scheme and the audio device shows my sound card. It's got me pulling my hair and I don['t really have much to pull these days.

and are you talking about all sounds or just Windows sounds that you get when you maximize a window or close an application? Is your screen reader still working? Can you still play music?

When you go into Start -> Control Panel -> Sounds, check to make sure that your sound scheme hasn't changed. Ditto for the default Windows audio output device.

Bud,

Which operating system are you using? If XP, did you go to "sounds and audio
devices" in the control panel?

Subject: lost my windows sounds

Hi gang,

I don't think I asked this question on this list because I'm a pretty new
kid on the block, so if I did ask it before please forgive me. A few months
ago all of a sudden I lost my windows sounds such as the starting and
shutting down of windows, and the sound that indicates hardware
disconnecting or connecting. I've checked all the volumes and made sure that
nothing is muted.  If I check the list of sounds
they are all there and work   My sound card is a S B live and I'm
running XP and windoweyes.  I can't think of anything I did at the time I
lost the sounds as far as downloading or installing any program or anything
like that, they just all of a sudden disappeared.  Any thoughts would sure
be appreciated.  I sure miss them.
Thanks..
