I want to re-configure the sound effect for my Windows XP Professional, and I would like to use those sound effects from HL1 and HL2 (for example, the headcrab sounds or the menu sound effect, or the gravity gun sounds).
How do I extract those sounds from the game file? Has someone done it already, and they're somewhere in cyberspace, ready to be downloaded?
Thanks.

For HL- all those sounds are already .wave files... you just have to get GCF scape and go find them. I assume HL2 is similar.

get some GCF accessing program (i use GCFscape), extract the files, and place them over the existing windows sound files.

What are you guys talking about? Mucking around in windows folders? It's trivial to specify custom sounds for windows events through the control panel. There is absolutely no need to go anywhere near your system folders!
