Using Sound Recorder on XP

[Andrew E]

1st,xp doesnt require or use music match,its totally an
add-on outadated piece of software xp wont use unless you
require it to.For sounds,recorder isnt configured to
open,close programs etc,open sound icon in control-panel,
system sounds,highlight an event,then browse the sound
menu,select,apply.Usually these icons are within windows
os,you can go to search,type in the info for WAV Sounds
R.click the icon,properties,change icon.

I didn't see anything in Control Panel > Sounds and Audio Devices > Sounds
to modify the way a particular playback device opens, only a way to
associate an event with a particular sound.

Also, right-clicked a WAVE > Properties, but didn't see anything that would
change the icon of the item.
