Windows System Sounds

EricT
For some reason, I have lost Windows XP Pro system sounds (i. e. opening and closing Windows). If I go into the control panel and test my SB128 PCI card for the system sounds they work. Any ideas or suggestions on how to restore the system events sounds? TIA.

Stupid Outlook Express 6 question...

dcxman
Morning all! Well to say the least I've got an instructor that has a small pestering dilemma with his OE 6 settings. When he reads his new email in the preview pane window and it comes with an attachment you would see the paper clip icon in the upper right hand corner of the preview pane.
