My sound didn't work since the day i...

from WinCustomize Forums
Usually in windows, when you turn shut down or restart your computer, you can hear a nice sound. Also when you turn on your computer, at the welcome screen, you also hear a nice sound. you guys know what sounds they are. (or you guys should know!) Ever since i replaced the orginal windows log-on to a better looking or cool log-on, i haven't heard those sounds anymore. i still hear sounds on my computer but not when i turn off or turn on my computer.

Can you guys help me?

NOTE: i went to sounds, speech, and audio devices in the control panel and it was still set to making those welcome and exit windows sounds.

Did you check the volume?
Did you check your speaker connections?

I don't think he needs to do that because he hears other sounds .
Bash2Cool, try disbling the sounds for shutdown and startup then apply then set them again - and tell us what happens.
Good Luck
