I don't have MSN Messenger, but I do have windows
messenger originally installed along with winxp.
The problem is that it's sound effect such as when
somebody send me a message is gone recently.
Instead of the sound coming out, the pc speaker beeped.
I have checked the audio options in the control panel and
everything seems to be fine.
So how do I solve this problem?
Thank you for your time.
 
Greetings IceDragon,

Try this-- download and run these .reg files (just download and choose Run)
http://messenger.jonathankay.com/downloads/dingfix.reg
http://messenger.jonathankay.com/downloads/wm_soundfix.reg

Note: in the last .reg file, if your Messenger installation isn't in C:\, you'll need to open
it in Notepad and change the drive letter.

After these are imported, reboot, then log back in and see if the sounds now work.
