So yeah, the Windows Whistler sounds are fake. The Windows 98 shutdown sound plays in reverse at the beginning, followed by a slowed down version of the level up sound, and then the Windows 2000 Beta 3 startup sound played in reverse at the end.
But, if you do a little bit of research, you'll find out these sounds are fake.īasically, the Windows Whistler sounds were created using three sounds: The Windows 98 shutdown sound, the Windows 2000 Beta 3 startup sound, and the level up sound from the Microsoft Entertainment Pack: The Puzzle Collection game.
They were claimed to have their first use when Windows 2000 sounds were removed, until the Windows XP sounds were added, when the Whistler sounds were completely removed. Around the time we were learning about early builds of Windows XP (codenamed "Whistler") a pair of fake startup and shutdown sounds were created (most likely) to fool people.
