How do i make my PC greet me every start up? I'm using win xp. I'm wondering if there is some software that would read out aloud the current date and time, and basic greetings (such as 'good morning, how are you?' ) everytime i boot up. You could simply create a.wav file ('Good morning, Dave!' ) and use it as the startup sound. Good morning Dave, I’m completely operational, and all my circuits are functioning perfectly.
