No system sounds

Got a problem with Windows XP Pro...

For some strange reason, I no longer have systems sounds, for example when I log on (no music) and when I get new mail the PC speaker beeps, instead of playing the sound I have set.

Thing is, I can hear the sounds when I go to Sounds and Audio devices, select the default sound scheme (or my own) I can click and listen to them but it just seems that Windows has gone silent on me.

Haven't installed anything new and even a system restore doesn't work. Is there an .ini file somewhere or a registry entry that is telling Windows not to play sounds?

I'm baffled by this as I can play mp3s and so on. Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
