Today I installed a program that will let you record any sound coming from
your speakers. It's a paid program and it's a reputable program but I
noticed something after the reboot. Im not sure it's related or not. When
I even move my cursor over a icon on my desktop it gives that windows
sounds, like a critical beep. When I click on a topic here in the newsgroup
to read, same thing. Clicking on contrl panel incons or any incons up
there, same noise. Its annoying. What happened? Any help would be
appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,

Something altered the associated sounds. Go to the Control Panel/Sound, and
on the sounds (third) tab, check the defaults.

Thanks for the help.

The total program was total recorder.

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

This was (another one of) those rudimentary things that I could do with
Win95/98/XP automatically using no third party software but can't do
with Vista.
