Notepad Tricks

Do you watch movies? Have you ever liked the way how Computers in movies welcome their users by calling out their names?

Well....by using this trick, you can make your Computer welcome you in its computerized voice. You can make your Windows based computer say "Welcome to your PC, Username."

Make Windows Greet you with a Custom Voice Message at Start-up.

Follow the instructions given below:-

 1. Click Start>All Programs>Accessories>Notepad.
 2. Copy and paste the exact code given below.
 3. Replace Username with your own Name.
 4. Click on File>Menu>Save As>select "All types" in "Save As Type" option, and save the file as
     "Welcome.vbs" or "*.vbs".
 5. Copy the saved file.
 6. Navigate to "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup"(in Windows XP) or
    to "C:\Users\User-name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup"
    (in Windows 7 and Windows Vista) if C: is your System drive.
 7. Paste the file.

Dim speaks, speech
speaks="Welcome to your PC, Username"
Set speech=CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")
speech.Speak speaks

Now when the next time you start your computer, Windows will welcome you in its own computerized voice.
Note: For best results, it's recommended to change sound scheme to No Sounds.
You can change the sound scheme to No Sounds by Following the steps given below:-

1. Go to Control Panel.
2. Then right click on Switch to Classic View.
3. Then click on Sounds And Audio Devices.
4. Then click on the Sounds tab.
5. Select No Sounds from the Sound Scheme option.
6. If you wish to save your previous sound scheme, you can save it by clicking Yes in the popup menu.
7. Click on OK.

Try this yourself to see how it woks. From my opinion, it's an excellent trick. Whenever I start my PC in front of anyone and the PC welcomes me, the fellow is left wondering, how magical computer do I have.
