To set up a sound when your PC goes into hibernate/sleep and when it wakes up, you can follow these steps:

Setting a Sound for Sleep/Hibernate:​

• Access Sound Settings:
• Right-click on the speaker icon in the bottom right corner of the taskbar.
• Select "Sounds" from the menu that appears.
• Choose Event Sounds:
• In the Sound window, go to the "Sounds" tab.
• Scroll down and locate the "Windows Logon" option.
• Assign Sounds:
• Look for "Start Windows" and "Windows Logoff" events.
• Choose a sound scheme that includes a sound for these events (e.g., "Windows Default").
• Set the sound for "Start Windows" as the sound you want when your PC goes to sleep/hibernate.

Setting a Sound for Wake Up:​

• Use Task Scheduler:
• Press Win + R to open the Run dialog.
• Type taskschd.msc and press Enter to open Task Scheduler.
• Create a New Task:
• Click on "Create Basic Task" under the Actions panel on the right.
• Follow the wizard to create a task that runs a program/script.
• Set Triggers:
• Choose a trigger for when you want the sound to play (e.g., when your PC wakes up from sleep).
• Configure additional settings and save the task.
• Assign Sound Action:
• In the Actions tab of the task, add an action to "Start a program."
• Set the program to play the sound you want. You can use sndrec32.exe for built-in sounds or a custom script or program to play a specific sound file. These steps should allow you to set up sounds for when your PC goes into hibernate/sleep and when it wakes up. Remember to test the settings to ensure they work as expected.
