Gabrielle,
Pay no attention to this flamer. He is the reason cyber-bullying exists. Go
to the Control Panel and find the option for sounds. Within this option you
can change the default sound to another sound on your system. You can do a
Google or WindowsLive search for .wav files and download one if you'd like.
Since each version of Windows is a bit different and the appearance and
access to Control Panel can easily be changed, find the sound option and play
around with it until you get it. If you mess up, just change the theme back
to one of the list values. I hope that helps.
And VanguardLH... grow up.

Thanks for the helpful reply Ice, it's a pity VanguardLH has been put on
those prescription "Angry Pills" but when you've got the problems he's got
you just have to take the medicine and wait for the cure.

I'm am curious as to why this thread keeps getting found months after it
apparently died. He wasn't the one checking a 3 yr old post. In March,
someone dug it up and he replied, another person found it in april, it
happened again in july, and now you resurrected it. Why is it so popular?

This is probably resurrected because more often than not on help sites it is
common to have people search for a solution and find an answer rather than
start a new thread that has already been put up. We're almost programmed to
seek first THEN ask.
