Hi everybody, there are some sound problem after my computer installed Vista Inspirat 2 on XP Pro, there was original Vista sound for startup and shutdown when i first installed Vista Inspirat 2, but after restart my computer, both startup and shutdown has gone, and now when i startup and shutdown my computer, there is NO sound at all. i have tried to set up those sound again in control panel - sound, but it still not working, can anyone help me to get back those startup and shutdown sound?? thank you very much for kindness help.

Hi Takuro1103 !

Here are a vista-sounds (install with reg-file), and check your settings in controll-panel and audio-drivers.

Thank you very much for your help, but refer to your link above, i click into it and try to download the Vista sound pack from megaupload, but i just cannot download it from there, would you mind to upload the sound pack to other server or send it to my mail takuro85@hotmail.com ? thank you very much.

Here you go....install this sound scheme pack it has vista, vista inspirat an xp sound schemes, after you install go back to your sound option in control panel and choose form the 3 an reboot....enjoy!!!!

thx, i have downloaded it and install it, after reboot, i can see that there are two options in control panel  - sound, VistaRTM Sound Scheme and VistaRC2 Sound Scheme, i have tried both of them but there are still no sound for startup and shutdown sound (i have also check whether there are sound being set on startup and shutdown, and there is), what can i do now? everything is fine, i mean is not my sound card causing this problem because i can listen to music, there is sound when i deleted something in the bin, but just NOT for the startup and shutdown phase...

Just follow the steps:

1. Go to start menu run and enter REGEDIT and press resturn
2. This will start the regestry editor. Goto the file menu and select export and save the regestry as a file, make sure you have Export Range / All selected at the bottom of the save file window. This will save the whole regestry as a file, remember where you save the file... You have now backed up the regestry. Now close the regestry editor
3. Copy all the following text starting from Windows Regestry Editor Verion 5.00 by highlighting it, right clicking and selecting copy

4. Goto start menu / run again and this time type in NOTEPAD and click return
5. Now right click on the notepad window and select paste. Then select save from the file menu and save the file, make sure the filename you enter ends in .REG Remember where you saved the file and close notepad
6. Finally, navigate to your saved file and double click on it. You will see a dialoge asking whether you are sure you want to add the information from the file to the regestry, simply click OK. Once this is done, then try the website you have been having trouble with and see if it works. Any problems, simply double click the backup file you created in step 1 and this will restore your regestry back to what it was.

Hope this helps!

Thanks alot, and it is quite alot to do, but may i ask is this some way to fix the problem of startup and shutdown sound?

Go to the Start menu -> Run -> type in control  mmsys.cpl,,1 and press OK. There you can change the sounds.

contol panel>sound, speech and Audio devices>change the sound scheme.

then scroll down to Windows Logoff and Windows logon. click on them and click on the arrow and browse to Windows vista Logoff or Windows vista Logon. easy!

Yes .

Just follow the steps below .

1. Go to Start menu > Run and enter REGEDIT and press Return .
2. This will start the regestry editor.
Goto the file menu and select export and save the registry as a file, make sure you have Export Range >> All selected at the bottom of the save file window.

3 Now run the attached registry key file . Just double click it and say "Yes" when it asks whether you want to add the information to your registry .

This should solve your problem .
