I just checked my Win3.1 (not 3.11) diskettes and the only sounds they had were:
- CHIMES.WA_
- DING.WA_
- CHORD.WA_
Those could be unpacked to .WAV files with EXPAND.EXE which was supplied with the
product.
I had a lot of other sounds with my Win3.1 but they were snagged from games or BBSs
or Fido Net.
It's 20-20 hindsight but I installed Win95 on a new drive and kept Win3.1 as a dual
boot, just so I wouldn't lose anything I might later find valuable.
