re: Comment about 'Turn Off the PC-Speaker'

I have this same stupid problem with several of the windows default sounds (Windows 
startup and shutdown music, recycle bin, etc.) not playing and the pc volume slider 
causing the PC speaker to "beep" instead of the customary "ding" wave file.  

I have followed the registry advice listed above and reset the keys but still have 
not been to rectify the problem.  

Any other ideas?  I am not wild about messing with my system BIOS or completly turning 
off the PC internal speaker.  

I feel like the more I monkey with it the more likely I am to really screw it up!

Thanks all!

Kathy
