Using the sound wave files included with Windows NT, you can associate sounds to events. To associate sound waves with certain system and application events, double-click the Sound icon in the Control Panel window.
You must have a sound card and a sound driver installed to use the sound wave (.WAV) files. The Sound icon only appears in the Control Panel window if you have the necessary hardware and driver installed.
To free hard disk space, you can delete the sound wave files that you don't intend to use or all of the sound wave files if you do not have a sound card installed on your computer. To remove the sound wave files, use the Windows NT Setup program. For more information about removing files, see "Adding and Removing Windows NT Components" in Chapter 12, "System Maintenance with Windows NT Setup," in the Windows NT System Guide.
Windows NT includes the following sound wave files. For more information about sound wave files, see "Using Audio and MIDI Sounds in Windows NT" in Chapter 5, "Control Panel," in the Windows NT System Guide.
