. 122 WAV files

To install.
1 Copy the "Windows Classic" folder and contents as a subfolder of \windows\media

2. Double-click the winClassicSounds.reg file to merge with the Windows Registry
When asked "Are you sure you want to add the information..." choose "Yes"

Start\Control Panel\Sounds and Audio Devices

1. Open the Sounds and Audio Devices control applet in Contol Panel
Start\Control Panel\Sounds and Audio Devices
2. Select the "Sounds" tab
3. Choose the relevant Windows Classic sound scheme in the "Sound scheme" drop-down list
4. Select Delete to delete the sound scheme (note, this only deletes the scheme list not the files).
5. To delete the sound files if desired, delete the \windows\media\Windows Classic\ folder.

Note:
All the original sound files found in the Windows versions are included.
The sound schemes follow the original schemes as laid out by Microsoft; you will find that
Microsoft chose not to use some of the sound files although they were present.
Feel free to update the schemes according to your preferences.
