WinCim 2.01 Sounds Do Not Play After Rebooting

 Last reviewed: March 27, 1997
Article ID: Q155576
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

When you install WinCIM 2.01, sound events are associated and work properly until the system is rebooted. The sounds no longer play after rebooting, although the events are registered in the Sounds tool and can be played manually.

CAUSE

WinCIM 2.01 expects to store its sound event information in the Win.ini file, which is correct for Windows 3.1x. Windows NT migrates this information to the registry at each reboot, making this information unavailable to WinCIM.

STATUS

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
