re: Missing default beep (was: re: Question about 'How do I add or remove sound events from Control Panel?') Wednesday, May 29, 2002 at 5:39 am Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by David Woods (1 messages posted) Hi Eric I also had this problem. Basically, it's caused by uninstalling Nortons AntiVirus. Do you recall doing that prior to your default beep sound event going missing? It appears the Nortons uninstaller deletes this sound event from the registry. It's a very annoying bug, but I have no way of contacting Nortons to let them know about it. Regards, David.
