Marv: When do you remember it starting to fail? It is most likely that some
piece of software you installed since then has overridden some setting
someplace.
Try to recall when you remember hearing that sound for the last time or
first noticed it was not there. Then see what software you installed in
between those times. That is what I would consider the most likely culprit
unless you have mucked about with any audio settings during that period.
If you can narrow it down to a possible application then you can e-mail or
call their support folks and ask them what they did to turn off those
sounds. If they help good, if not perhaps they can tell you how to reverse
what they did. Otherwise it would be a matter of,as you have done, Googling
until you can figure out how to override any settings of third party
software. that may not even be possible if the software ReSets the value
every time it is run and you may have to either do a system restore, if that
would work and I'm not sure about that, or uninstall the software and try
and ReSet the values manually.
But, perhaps someone on list will have experienced something similar and
have a better answer.

Subject: Windows 7 Sound Scheme Nightmares
hi.
i have windows 7 professional 32 bit, jaws 13.0.638, and now for some
strange reason,
when i try to use headings on a web page, it does not give me the
windowding.wav.
same when routing jaws to pc on a web page.
i do not hear the sound.
i have gone to the sounds, selected windows default, then i tab to and the
drop down
combo box does not show up.
if i select the windows default, tab and arrow down to *
then the list of sounds comes up and when i tab it lands on the windows
sound starting with the letter e, and have to up arrow to windowsding.wav.
but when i click apply, and then i get windows default modified.
so wondering if my windows 7 sound scheme is screwed up.
using a toshiba a300 satellite psg4a - 02300m
and i am using the real tech audio manager.
wonder if i then download and install the drivers, will it fix this.
how to repair the windows sound scheme.
this problem has been happening since christmas day.
and do not want to do a system restore not really.
had already installed avg free 2012, and then uninstalled mse.
so any help.
how to get this to work.
also, the jaws 13, when i check for updates, does not hear the ding for
the update dialog.

did uninstall and reinstall jaws 13, but made no difference.
went to the settings centre and used the jaws default.
said that the top and bottom sound alert was selected, clicked okay, then
saved the default jaws file.
