I'm running xp home (upgrade). after a while, i lost my
defalt beep when i adjust my sound volume. I looked at my
program events in control panel sounds and it's missing?

Create a *.reg file out of the following and merge it into your registry:

--------- begin reg file -------------------------------
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default\.Default]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default\.Default\.Current]
@="Windows XP Ding.wav"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default\.Default\.Default]
@=hex(2):25,53,79,73,74,65,6d,52,6f,6f,74,25,5c,6d,65,64,69,61,5c,57,69,6e,64, 6f,77,73,20,58,50,20,44,69,6e,67,2e,77,61,76,00

----------- end reg file -------------------------------
That will add the Default Beep back to your sound schemes.

Another way you can restore your "beep" is to go to
Kelly's XP Korner at http://www.kellys-korner-
xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm and you will find "Fix the Ding Wave
File" at line 6, right hand column. The instructions for
using it are at the top of the page. It does the same
thing, but you don't have to create your own .reg file.

Hope this helps,
Milt
