Publisher's description
From Prime-Projects :From the developer: "Chimer acts like a carriage clock, chiming out the hours with a sound sample of your choice. Not only are you able to configure Chimer for every hour, you can also add chimes that chime every quarter hour."

Version: Chimer 1.1
Cons: After using my own sounds for the chimes, the chimer doesn't chime on the hour nor every 15 mins. Not only does it not have many options such as a system start up option, it also doesn't have save option so you can save your own sound template. The program forces you to use a default template when you restart the program. Very annoying when you have to redo everything over and over again.

Version: Chimer 1.1
"A Big Ben chime that works with XP :)"
Pros: I tend to lose track of time while on the computer, and desperately needed something like this. I'd found some other software that specifically refers to chiming like Big Ben, but was disappointed to find it wasn't designed for Windows XP. So I thought I'd try Chimer, and was pleasantly surprised--I'm sure this IS Big Ben, although not labeled as such. It works and it's free--what more could I want?
Cons: A bell icon appears in the system tray, but unlike many other programs it doesn't respond to a right-click or a single left click. Double-left-clicking is the only way to bring it up. Ringing on the hour is different than I expected. If you have it set to Hours, it will ring 2 times at 2 o'clock, 3 times 3 o'clock, etc. But it simply repeats the same wav file that many times, and the wav file contains lots of empty air after the chime. So it's really painful just waiting for each successive chime, particularly at noon! I've reset it to just chime once at the top of the hour.
