I want to change the notification sound of when I receive an email.

control panel>sound>change system sounds.

Done that, chose new sound, clicked on "play" new sound. Saved it with a new name, click ok, still same sound.

Have I missed something? (It works on XP)

Works for me.....what are you using as your mail client and does it make use of the Windows sound scheme?

But it pointed me in the right direction, thank you.

If it helps anyone?

If you are using mozilla thunderbird you change the email arrived email sounds by going Tools>options>general
Then look at the last option option

It was meant in a loving way
