All the startup and shutdown sounds in this video are almost 100% correct.
1. Windows does not have any sounds before Windows 3.0 MME
2. Windows NT Beta 1 and Beta 2 does not use Windows 2000 Beta 3 Builds 1946 - 1969 startup sound as shutdown sound.
3. Windows Millenium uses 98 sounds as it's based on 98.
4. Windows Whistler used 2000 sounds until build 2485. (Build 2481 introduced XP sounds but still have 2000 sounds as default) The fake Windows Whistler startup uses Windows 98 shutdown sound, Windows 2000 Builds 1983 - 2000 startup sound, and level up sound from Microsoft Entertainment Pack: The Puzzle Collection. Meanwhile the shutdown sound uses sound from BeOS.
5. All versions of Windows Server 2003 used Windows XP sounds. The supposed "UK Startup" comes from an advertisement for Windows Server 2003, coincidentally aired in the UK.
6. The fake Windows Longhorn sounds came from Samsung desktop theme for Windows XP. Windows Longhorn used Windows XP sounds until build 5840.16384.
7. Starting from Windows Server 2008, the startup sound of the Windows Server version is unplayable.
8. Windows 8, 8.1, and 10 used Windows Vista startup sound. They do not use the shutdown sound.
