Restart Icon, Standby And Sound Options Windows XP

[vizskywalker 0]

Three(ish) questions:1) Does anyone know where (and even in what file if it is in a dll) the icon that is used for the restart symbol in WinXP is? The green one with the starish symbol? 2) Does anyone know how to cause the computer to standby, hibernate, and or log off using the switch users method using a command line option (so I can make a shortcut out of it)?3) Does anyone know how to set a Windows sound event to choose a random sound from a list of sounds, maybe a batch file or something?Thanks in advance.

Three(ish) questions:1) Does anyone know where (and even in what file if it is in a dll) the icon that is used for the restart symbol in WinXP is?  The green one with the starish symbol?

Most default shell icons are stored in %WinDir%\System32\shell32.dll

2) Does anyone know how to cause the computer to standby, hibernate, and or log off using the switch users method using a command line option (so I can make a shortcut out of it)?

1. Create a shortcut (Right-click on desktop, select New > Shortcut).

2. For location, type the following:

shutdown -r -t 0

3. Click Next, enter a name for the shortcut ("Restart" is appropriate), and
click Finish.

When you click your Restart shortcut, Windows XP will reboot without any prompts !

The "-r" switch tells XP to reboot. If you'd like the shortcut to shut off
your PC instead, change it to "-s"; to simply log off, change it to "-l".
The "-t 0" sets the timeout (in seconds), so up this value if you find the
need for it. To force running applications to close, add "-f" -- be careful
with this one! Anything in memory not saved to disk will be lost.
