The little bleep that sounds is easy to miss. I would like change it like
can be done in other mailers.
 
Yep, its changed via the Sounds & Audio Devices applet in the control panel.
(Sounds tab and then look for new mail notification)
 
sure... put the *.wav file in c:\windows\media and it will show up in the
list. anywhere else on a local hard drive and you have to use the browse
button on that sounds tab to get it assigned to the sound event.
 
If I'm running both Windows Live and MS Outlook 2007 on the same computer,
how can I have separate sound files for mail arrival? I don't want them to
use the same sound file for message arrivals.
 
Assign different sounds

Yes, but the question was "how" ;-)
They both use the default Windows sounds and don't have an in-application
option to change the sound clip.

In Outlook you can disable the default sound and then use a rule to play a
specific sounds. It would be similar to;
