"Good Morning Mr. Stark"...that my people, is Ironman's computer, Jarvis. Wouldn't we all love a PC that could greet us instead of Windows boring default logon sound? Turns out that dream can be reality (though not on Jarvis' level lol), and this cool trick just needs a notepad. It’s a well-known fact that Windows 7 comes with a set of sound scheme packages and one can easily change the default sound scheme with a custom one. Now, if you would like to make your PC welcome you with a simple voice message, there is a simple way to do that.
1. First copy the following code in a notepad and then save the file with the name "Welcome" and the extension must be the .vbs extension (Welcome.vbs). Of course, you can the customize the message with your own words. In this example, you can replace the words “Hello Mr Pillay! Welcome back to your computer. Have a nice day” with a custom message. Just copy the below text and paste it into notepad, and replace "Mr Pillay" with whatever name suits you:
Dim speaks, speech
speaks=”Hello Mr Pillay! Welcome back to
your computer. Have a nice day”
Set speech=CreateObject(“sapi.spvoice”)
speech.Speak speaks
2. Now copy the previously saved .vbs file and paste it into the Startup folder in your Windows 7 drive: C:\Users\UserName(your username or administrator)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
TIP:If you can’t see the AppData folder under your UserName folder, then its hidden by Windows by default. Just navigate to your control panel>folder options>view and select show hidden folders, files and drives.
3. And there you have it! Your PC will welcome you at your next logon! Just remember to change your logon sound to no sound which can be done by right clicking the desktop>personalize>sounds and then selecting NONE as your logon sound. Now combine this trick with my earlier post regarding rainmeter to give you that sci-fi look, and go tell your buddies you have the new Windows GT or something like that lol. Feel like a boss, Cheers, Sam
