ok so i am hoping someone here will help with me issue. i am having a problem with 
a sound theme from a program i have installed. 

i have tried numerous times changing the sound theme to a different one and even 
reverting back to windows default sounds. i have gone into my sound settings to try 
and fix it, i have gone into the program itself and tried to fix it and even tried 
going into another realted program to fix the issue and nothing has worked. the sound 
that is aggravating me and wont go away is the sound that happens when i click on 
the x to close a window. so i am assuming that there is a registry entry for stuff 
like this, i am hoping there is and so thats my question, can someone if this is 
possible, direct me in the right direction to get to this setting in my registry 
and fix it? i am an advancer windows user so am comfortable with tweaking stuff this 
way just in case anyone asks. thank you so very much in advance! Jenny

[Reply or follow-up to this message] re: how to fix sounds Wednesday, September 17, 2008 at 1:11 pm Posted by Ricer46 (20445 messages posted) I don't think anyone here can help solve a problem with so many unknowns, everything that controls sounds from with Windows can be changed in that dialog box. Individual programs have sound settings listed within the registry, but you haven't even bothered to identify "the related program."

Just delete the ones you don't want. [Reply or follow-up to this message] Off topic...

This is another one of those, "don't you hate it when that happens" moments. :) Blocking Unwanted Parasites with a Hosts File [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: how to fix sounds Wednesday, September 17, 2008 at 9:51 pm Posted by Jenny (49 messages posted) ok ya know what EVERYONE, this is exactly why I did not mention the program cause what I know is that soo many of you are soo big on ooo it must be an xp issue, blah blah blah that is why I did not mention the program, for your information I did go to their forums and if one of you can find my answer there be my guest, I'm not a computer retard so I know to do that, I am not Bill Gates or Steve Jobs, I don't write programs and I don't know the answer to absolutely everything computer, but I know most stuff, which is alot, alot more than every single one of my friends because I took the time to learn. I wanted to know if there is some setting in the registry because I have tried everything else and I know enough to know that there probably is and through like 7 replies give or take a couple absolutely no one has even paid attention to that, what a bunch of geniuses you all are! It's very annoying and rude to talk about people in the third person like they aren't there because PEOPLE she has a name its JENNY and I stated that in my first post, you might try calling someone by their name sometime and see what happens and who ever it was that said there is some music note icon is DELUSIONAL. there is nothing there, I have not seen this note since I started using windows blinds. You know what else is really annoying is how many replies I got stating the OBVIOUS, seriously I did say I am an advanced computer user, I know the avenues to take to try and fix the issue on my own, its honestly like not one of you really read my entire post. So whatever I guess I was wrong in thinking there was anyone here who could actually help or would for that matter!

After all, if you have problems with a third party program, get support/help from the vendors. Either that, or locate a forum that has sub-forums for misc software. This isn't one of them.
