If you are like me and have the windows introduction and exit music playing in your head all the time, look no further. In this article, I will show you how to make The Daleks shout "EXTERMINATE!" when you log off, or have "voice print verified" play when you insert a USB connection, just two of many sounds you can obtain.
1
First you need to actually get the sound effects. Windows only plays .WAV files for its sound settings, so first you need to find the ones that you want. There are many sites that have free .WAV files for download, among these are "The Daily WAV", "Free WAV", or any that can be found in Google.
2
Save files to a folder you can get to easily, as routing through file screens can be time consuming. Usually, You find the Wav file you want, right click and select "Save Target As". You can then save the file to your folder.
3
Go to the control panel and select classic view on the left-hand toolbar. Select "sounds and Audio devices" and click on the "sounds" tab..
4
Select the desired process from the list. Processes with a sound already attached have a speaker next to them. Be careful when scrolling down the page, as the default scroll selection is the sound scheme, and not the actual sounds. Make sure that a sound is selected before scrolling.
5
After selecting the desired process, click on browse at the bottom of the window. This will reveal the last folder that you saved something to. Find your .WAV file and double click on it.
6
You will be back at the sounds screen, where you can now click "Apply"
7
If you are finished, click "OK", if not, pay attention to where the scroller is set to, as scrolling now can undo all your hard work. You can repeat this technique as many times as you like, and you can always go back by clicking on "default" on the "Sounds and Audio devices" window.
