Tab and make sure all the sliders are

Try the following. It worked for me.
Startup Sounds are missing:

TweakUI/General/Beep on errors (verify that the box is checked).
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp

System Sounds are missing:

Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key: HKEY_USERS. If it
doesn't have a Data entry in the right pane that reads: (value not
set), double click (Default) and delete it. If it does, check your
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21 keys for the same.

Restore System Default Sounds (Line 6)

Restore Media Files (Line 174)

This edit corrects many Sound issues: Fix the Ding.wav File (Line 6)
