heard.

t The system sounds have been specified not to

sound during M-crew startup, or the setting
may have changed to OFF when M-crew was
abnormally ended. To restore the sounds,
restart M-crew and then quit the program
normally. Or double-click the backup file
(reg0.reg to reg3.reg) in the M-crew folder
and follow the instructions to set up the
program again (except for Windows XP).

properly.

menu. The “Readme.txt” file is in the folder
which the M-crew software is installed in.

in or external speakers of the

computer that has a USB connection to a system
stereo component.

Multimedia Properties” dialog box (page 17).
