Hi List,
I think that If you don't like the idea, or if you can't do it, don't do it!
But if you understand the instructions, and you can do it, do it!
Joseph, as always, thanks for all your help.
Please feel free to write me off-list if you deem it necessary.
Regards: Hilda.

Rhonda and list,
I should have provided cautionary note to my original post. Sorry for not
doing it in the first place.
Now, here is the text:
CAUTION: Please follow the instructions carefully. If not followed
properly, it may lead to problems and/or malfunction on your BrailleNote.
Also, it is advised that you perform a backup before proceeding with the
instructions marked "modifying system files" because improper use of these
instructions may lead to corrupted system files and/or corrupted software
involved. In case of hardware, if it is performed improperly, it may lead
to damaged unit that must be sent to HumanWare for repairs. Please don't
do this at home unless advised by HumanWare staff in case of hardware
tweaking (especially advanced hardware tweak). Do it at your own risk.
I'm not responsible for any damages caused by misuse of these
instructions.
Cheers,
Joseph

Part 1: Changing Startup Sound
I'm wondering why people want to do this. If
you have to put it
back in each time you reset, what is the
purpose? What is
actually wrong with the original startup
sound? I ask these
questions, because if you get a lot of people
messing around in
there equipment, they may not know what they
are doing.
Information is good, but sometimes, I think
we are leading people
down a path that may wind up hurting their
equipment. That is my
two cents, and I'll get flack for it, and
hopefully, one cents
change.

Part 1: Changing
Startup Sound
Dear list,
Thanks to someone who've sent me a private
email, I'm now sending you the instructions
on how to change the startup sounds from the
normal one to the one that you want.
You'll need a wav file that is no more than 5
seconds long, otherwise it will cause
problems.
Notes of caution: please keep this in mind:
* When you press Reset with dots 4-5-6 (JKL)
or if you've performed Service Reset (mPower
only), you'll lose the sound file. Therefore
I recommend that you make a backup copy of
the sound file (do not name it startup as it
will interfere with copying process).
* If you are going to use the Flash Disk
method, be sure to note the date and time
stamp (it must be later than the default
sound file).
Method 1: Copying and renaming from KeySoft
System Disk:
1. Copy the wav file that you want to use to
KeySoft System Disk/Windows folder.
2. After you've copied it, go to Main Menu,
select File Manager and press enter on
Rename.
3. At the drive prompt, select KeySoft
System Disk. At the folder name, select
Windows. At the file name, select the file
that you've just copied.
4. At the rename prompt, tzpe startup in
grade 1 and press enter. If it says about
existing file, press y to replace it. Then
KeySoft Says, "File Manager Menu." Press
Reset, and you'll hear your new startup
sound.
Method 2: copying to Flash Disk:
1. Copy the sound to Flash Disk/Windows
folder. If it says that the folder does not
exist, press y to create it.
2. Then go to Main Menu, select File Manager
and select Rename.
3. At the drive prompt, select Flash Disk.
At the folder name, select Windows. At the
file name, select the file that you've just
copied.
4. At the rename prompt, type startup in
grade 1 and press enter. If it says about
existing file, press y to replace it.
KeySoft then says, "File Manager Menu."
5. Press Reset. KeySoft will restart and
present a message, "System Files have been
updated, press Reset." Press Reset at this
point. You should hear new sound.
If you have any questions, feel free to post
it to the list.
Cheers,
Joseph
