Hi,
        If you still need this email me privately, but it's the windows
audio service. I've got a few offlist network questions for you.
Dave.

Subject: Enabling Sound on Windows 2K3
Importance: High

Folks,  we have a little situation.  My company as given me a promotion. 
They now want to put me in charge of server management.  I have no problem
with this at all, and I am! a certified network admin, so for me, this
really isn't a big deal, however, I cannot figure out how the bloody heck to
enable sound under windows 2k3.  I mean, ok, I know how to do it, but I
don't know the amount a keystrokes to scroll etc. to do it.  I know you can
do it one of two ways.

I guess the more complicated way would be to go to start, run, then type
services.msc

Then go down I think it was windows component services.  Then go to windows
sound, app's key, go to properties, then set the radio button from disabled,
to enabled, hit apply, then hit start, but I hear a much easier way is to go

start, then go to run, type in control and hit enter.

Then from the control panel, type s o u real fast to get to sounds an audio
devices.  hit enter on it.  Now however is where I'm stuck.  Apparently,
there is a checkbox on this first page that comes up that says enable sound.

I'm guessing alt+E would toggle that box, meaning I could then do alt+E then
just hit enter since the default button would most likely be the OK button,
but I wanna confirm my theory is correct.  Has anyone independently gotten
sound working in Win 2003?  Do yall maybe know even an easier way?  Aside
being a smart alak, and saying, yeah! get a sighty to do it.  The only
reason I don't have my supervisor just do this for me is cause my company
makes me work out of home, and the server we will use is actually located on
a box in my home, so it's not exactly in the most centralized place,
admittedly.

Chris.
