    Sound undeclared

    So I am trying to create sound in Dev C++ , I keep coming up with the problem stating that sound delay and nosound [link error] undefined reference, So i tried creating a project with the same code and linking -lwinmm but now it just says those three things are undeclared. Can anyone help me figure this out, been searching through the forums and web for an answer.

    OS is windows 7 btw

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <dos.h>
    #include <conio.h>
    
    
    void my_sounds(void);
    
    
    int music(int pitch, int time)
    {
    sound(pitch);
    delay(time);
    nosound();
    return(0);
    }
    
    
    
    
    void       my_sounds(void)
     {
          sound(130);            /* make a sound at 500 Hz.*/
          delay(2000);            /* pause for 2000 milliseconds = 2 seconds  */
          nosound();
         
    
    
          
     }

    According to my quick web search, you're talking about old DOS.H functions that simply don't exist in Windows.
    In windows, Beep() as a replacement for a combination of sound() + delay() + nosound().
