49036 2002-05-15 22:21:00 Recently had a bit of a clean out of old programs I never use any more. Used Add/Remove and restarted. After that did scandisk and defrag.

Now problem is that I have no Windows sounds. Little things like 'clicking noise' of IE browser when hitting back button, or the email notification sound or even windows startup sound. I can play music through winamp no problem. I can stream music through IE6 no problem so speakers are fine. I think that I might have removed something that I shouldn't have.

Not a big problem but just something that has been playing on my inquisitive mind.

winME,nvidia geforce2 mx.

Check that your system is still configured to play system sounds by opening the control panel and clicking on sounds. This should display a list of events and the sound configured to play when this occurs. If there are no sounds configured, select a scheme and press ok. If some of the sound files are missing you should be able to restore them off the Windows CD.
