It seems that Windows XP doesn't like sounds in two different places.
I now only use one place in the Media folder for all sounds...and logoff and
logon sounds are working.

What two places?
C:\WINDOWS\Media is the default location for sound event sounds, but nothing
says you have to use those .wav files.
Normally you can have a .wav file anywhere on your machine that you can use
for sound events.
I use this for one for Start Windows
C:\Documents and Settings\Wesley Vogel\My Documents\My Download Files\WAV
FILES\LooneyToons\ltunes.wav
