Clapping sound with left click

[Chad Harris]

For whatever reason lately, every time I reboot, I have *a clapping sound
that comes out of my speakers when I left click to open programs or onto the
start menu items.* It's easily remedied by going to Sounds and Audio
Devices (or shortcutting that item to the desktop or anywhere else)>Sound
Tab>Sound Scheme and selecting a no sounds theme on the pulldown menu.
There must be a cause of this, and a way to stop this from happening. I
can't find anything obvious in taskmanager's processes, or listed in
msconfig or services that would be the culprit or impact this.

I've seen that sound come up every once in a while, but now it shows up on
every reboot. Does anyone know the cause of this and a remedy?

TIA,

Chad Harris

PS: You can also change the sound file for those events only to None or a
sound file of your choice.

On the same page where you changed the sound scheme to None, you can check
the paths for the sounds assigned to "Start Navigation" and "End
Navigation."

Hi Sharon--

I've been able to nail down that this clapping (although I've seen it happen
before not related to Style XP) has to do with the deployment of Style XP.
I have Style XP's latest version 2.03 and its latest patch. When you say
page, I think you mean the Sounds and Audio Devices Properties dialogue box
(Sounds tab), and as I said I can correct this by going there and switching
to a different sound scheme with no sounds or without the clap, (it shows up
as blank before I switch it in the "Sound Scheme" pull-down. When you say "
you can check the paths for the sounds assigned to "Start Navigation" and
"End Navigation," I'm not sure *where* exactly you mean for this to be
done. I don't see anyplace on this box for that. I know I can change the
sound them--its just an annoyance to have to do it every reboot because I'm
using Style XP whose options and associated apps Style Builder and Resource
Builder I like as well as Stardock's.

Thanks,

Chad Harris
