Mike I'm not trying to fix this, I'll see what happens in the next build, (I'm still on 10074) but I just noticed that none of my Windows sounds will play, either my custom sounds or the default Windows sounds. What's weird about this is that unlike a lot of earlier builds all my other sounds...

I love the speech recognition. It actually works, is useful, and is fun. But I would like to know if there is a way to customize the voice commands, such as addressing the computer as a name to activate it, instead of "Start listening" (nerdy, I know, but AWESOME). Or for further customization...

Like Vista, Win 7 doesn't offer a way to change the stupid startup sound to something more appropriate. A Google search led me to this trick posted on this WinVistaClub forum. Link Removed The method described seems to work for Win 7 as well. To avoid permission issues with replacing a system...
