I went through device manager and disabled BEEP, so now when I start up my laptop,
it doesn't beep - but I still have a problem. I have a security feature on my laptop
so that when I close it and then re-open it, I have to punch in a password on the
buttons on my screen to get the laptop going again - and every time I punch a number
in, the &@*#ing PC speaker still BEEPS! It's really annoying in the middle of class
- it's as bad as having your cell phone ring. Is there any way, short of tearing
open my laptop and ripping the PC speaker out, that I can completely disable it?
Anyone?
