I have lost some of the sounds on my xp system. The sounds lost are the windows sound files (startup and shutdown chimes etc) The cd drive plays a music CD ok and also my AOL connection has sounds working.
I have checked the control panel/sounds and audio devices and everything seems in order.
Also if I am logged in has a different user the sounds are all working ok.
Any ideas please?

Sorry, I have a single user set-up here.

Have you tried saving a new sound scheme as it may be the sound scheme for that user is corrupted or not correctly associated with that user :question:
Hopefully someone else will be able to help you.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0
