Backup the original \Windows\System32\imageres.dll file, replace the existing one with your newly-modified uber-cool version, and reboot to check it out. You need to replace resource name (number?) 5051 with a Wave file of your own – resource 5051 is the default Windows Vista startup sound, and you’re going to replace it with your own custom ( wave!) file. Open the subfolder pertaining to your particular language code. Referring to the list of language codes, German would be 1031, and Spanish is 1034. Each language has a different code in Windows in this example, we’re working on a United States English copy of Vista, which has language code 1033.

Of the many controversies surrounding Windows Vista, probably the most infamous (and pathetic) issues brought to the table is the Windows Vista Startup sound – and how to get rid of it.
