I get annoyed enough when it bleeps. I don't want it to get gobby at me too.

The first thing I usually do with a new computer is disable the sound completely. I prefer my computers to be silent and servile.

I'm still working on the servile part.

[thor39]

Nice what program are you using to set sounds to operations
I used to use Desktop Architecht is there anything else?

Stickler-sense tingling. Teacher instinct rising. Must...control...pedant mode.

Oh dear. Highlight to read the following. Those not interested in a pedantic rant should just page down now, because...

I can't control it anymore!

It's whose, dagnabbit! The possessive of 'who' is 'whose'. 'Who's' is a contraction of 'who is'!

Gah!

<Gasp. Wheeze.>

Okay; blood pressure dropping. Heartrate stabilising.
We now return you to your regular, scheduled thread.

[angsty_otaku]

i dont use a special program i just go into the control panel and then the sounds menu and customize them that way

[bcmilco]

I used to have SG-1 stuff, but it got annoying quickly so turned it off... sometimes silence is very nice :D

Anytime someone signs in on MSN I hear "It's a Jaffa revenge thing...", a new e-mail gives me "The gauge must be malfunctioning"-"But it's Swiss!" and a message is "Oh Jeez!"

[thor39]

How do you customise hotmail like that..
is it possible???

[Supreme Commander Thor]

My computer talks to me all the time. Especially after coding for 14 hrs straight...

[thor39]

Lol i know how you feel I felt the same after learning HTML and Javascript the same weekend

[sgeureka]

When Windows starts: "Stargate SG-1" + evil laughter from PdL from the audio commentary of WoO

When Windows shuts down: "No! I've got nowhere else to go! :eek: " from PdL from the AC of Prodigy

Error message: "You realize this is a little difficult to accept" from Hammond (WoO) got a little bit to long, so I changed it to "(Martouf) Noooooo!" from James Tichenor from the AC of D&C

[Sam_o_Neill]

Me! I have :)
I got loads of different ones for different things, I change them every week or so :)
To be honest I can't remember which ones I've got on at the moment :S
I think for an error i've got Jack saying "Well this Sucks!" :)

[thor39]

HaHa conjusring up bad memories now
'well this sucks'
That sound now makes me cringe after having it for so long :o

[(",) Gater]

Mine does that! :p

When I shut down I have Chevron guy saying "Chevron Seven locked", when I start up, it's the KAWOOSH sound of the Stargate. Even on MSN Messenger, when one of my contacts come online I have Apophis saying "Kree, Jaffa" and Chevron guy says "Incomming communication" when someone chats to me.

Fun, fun, fun. :D

[thor39]

Any other sources for sounds as there are limited ones on dailywav.com

[SeaBee]

LOL...
As soon as I can replace my dead sound card guess what I'm going to do? :D

[Storm]

Where does one find the .wav files necessary?
My computer plays the theme to "Space: Above and Beyond," when I start it up. (let's just say S:AAB was a great series that never got a chance due to Fox politics.)

But I'd like to find some Stargate sounds for it.

[Nolamom]

My computer can talk, but it's in the witness protection program at the moment - so it had better keep quiet if it knows what's good for it! ;) Actually, I have a wav of Jack asking "Whatcha doin'?" when I sign on to AOL and Walter saying "Offworld Activation!" whenever a buddy comes on. Of course, I only use AOL for my email, so I don't hear Jack as often as I *could* hehehe.

Windows start (laptop): "BIGGER! What is it about the word 'bigger' that you don't understand?!"
Windows start (desktop): "Hey... it's what I do."

Windows shutdown (laptop): "Shut it down! ...NOW!"
Windows shutdown (desktop): "You didn't say anything WEIRD, did you?" "Why are you looking at me?"

I have the speakers off on my comps most of the time, so I don't bother too much with all the other nuancey things. Closing sound used to be the iris activating. Or retracting. Can't remember now. ;)

[thor39]

Lol that "Shut it down..NOW!!" line used to get me into trouble when I was playing on my laptop lte night ;)

[thor39]

I now have the I am thor supreme commander of the asgard fleet violation quote for my login, and to oz for any program activation and kurt russel's part in the movie "give my regards to knig tut a******" when I logoff. I will soon get sick of these ;)

[SGSlugger]

I had them on my old computer, and changed frequently. When it shut down, HAL 3000 came on and said: "I'm sorry, I can not let you do that."

Once we got our new machine I've just been too lazy to add them again.
