For the sound issue, if you don't have it get a copy of tweakui:

On the general tab make sure the beep on errors box is checked. If not
that will turn off the windows start and stop sounds. You can go into
control panel | sounds and audio devices on the sounds tab and turn off
whatever sounds you want.
