Reducing Volume of "Windows Sounds"

[SpyPirates]

Whenever Windows 7 makes a sound (like an error message or something like that) it seems entirely too loud relative to other programs that make sounds.  Is there any way I can make Windows 7 play quieter sounds when it's giving me error messages? 

I checked the Mixer and I didn't see anything there, and I also checked control panel -> sounds, and only found a way to change the sounds Windows 7 made, but not exactly make them quieter.

In the mixer Reduce the "Windows sounds" slider.

Or, you could raise all the other sliders and reduce your speaker volume, if that's possible.

weird. There is something wrong there... this is what I get:



Oh never mind. I just checked on my laptop; they changed the "windows sounds" item into "system sounds".

So, yeah, that one.
