Stop the Beeps

Some Windows operating systems still insist on using the speaker inside the computer case to make horrid sounding beeps.

This can drive oneself and one's office mates quite mad. Silence is golden.

The steps are quite simple. They work on Windows XP at least.

• Go to Control Panel, choose System, then Hardware, and finally the Device Manager.

• Choose Show hidden devices under the section Non- Plug & Player drivers

• Right click on Beep and disable it.

This should cure it!

Here's an article on how to disable the beeps which might have been our source material for the above steps...
