Sounds
Sounds:
By now you've customized the way Windows looks; now it's
time to attack the way it sounds. Edit the Registry to
force Windows to play sounds for specific events, like
opening or closing an application and maximizing or
minimizing windows. You can also set it to play a
certain sound file when it displays a message box. For
example, to play the sound C:\sound.wav every time
you start Microsoft Paint, run the Registry Editor,
and find the key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps
Click on Edit, New, then Key, and type in
MSPAINT (to match the name of the program). Next add a
key under MSPAINT called Open, and a key
under that called .Current. Double-click on the
default value to set it to C:\windows\sound.wav or
whatever. You'll see other applications with
sounds events; use them as a guide.
