Hi, I was wondering if there was a way i could change the music xp makes when i logon....

thx:Jim :huh:

We do not do email :w00t: so that post of yours is gone..go to your control panel..look for sounds..and in there you can control them..change them..or turn them off.

Where did my Sounds go?
Startup Sounds are missing:

TweakUI/General/Beep on errors (verify that the box is checked). http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/dow...s/powertoys.asp

Restore Startup and Shutdown Sounds (Line 211)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

System Sounds are missing:

Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key: HKEY_USERS. If it doesn't have a Data entry in the right pane that reads: (value not set), double click (Default) and delete it. If it does, check your HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21 keys for the same.

Hey,

My dad ran a non-destructive recovery on my xp box for some reason. dunno why yet, sigh.

Anyway, i can see all my data except the folders on my desktop. They held abt 50 GB of music. In any case i cant seem to find/access them. I tried searching but to no avail. The funny thing is that my c: memory is roughly the same as was before the recovery. Also, I tried defragmenting and it showed some of the files and the path was eg. Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\Music\Haddaway-What is Love. I tried going that way but couldnt access 'Owner' 'access denied'. then I went as admin in safe mode and still couldnt enter. when i scroll over 'owner' though it says 'empty'. And, the new owner acc is OWNER.Dea. sigh, some1 please help! :(

Take Care.
