For users which want to create sound schemes for ReactOS, I decided to publish information here about sounds which already created by some users, and what kind sounds are needed to be created and what is needed to be implemented in ReactOS.

System sounds in Windows XP/2003

IFX XP Sound Creator application can help you to create your sound scheme.

What needs to be improved in the system

  • System sound configuration is in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes.
  • Users can set sounds in GUI (Control panel> Sound) and Regedit
  • BUT, in the system support for this sound events is not implemented. If you install sound driver and set files for logon, logoff or exclamation, sound will play only at logon. (CORE-13951)
