    This laptop was originally bought in like new condition off Amazon in September of 2014 with Windows 7 Home Premium installed and about 6 months later I got a e-mail from my school telling me I could get all kinds of software free for my computer and then decided to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional, about a week later I wanted to give Windows 8.1 a try, well after failing on using it the first ti
Welcome to Windows EightForums, techtitan100. :)

There is only one sound scheme. You probably don't want to hear this, but there's not a lot of customization in Windows 8 as of yet. It was written to be a lean OS. Perhaps when Blue comes there will be some added.

There are 3rd party schemes you can install. Search engine "Windows 8 sound schemes" to look for those.

Again, welcome.
