When Playing MP3 files with WinAmp, I can hear other
system sounds. Like When I sign on to MSN I hear
the "Good Morning" mixed in with the Music. My old puter
(98) did'nt do this. When Listening to MP3's I want to
just hear the music without these other sounds. When not
playing mp3's, I want the normal system sounds. I can't
find any magical setting that says "Do Not Play System
sounds When Playing Music Files"

You can't. Wave and MP3 sounds are not separated out in Wondows XP.

Cheers,

Sorry, forgot to add that you can however turn off the System Sounds by :

Start > Control Panel > Sounds and Audio Devices > Sounds > then select none
for each System Sound that is currently active > Re-boot.

Cheers,
Jerry
