Disable all beeps?

[AuroraGuy]

I have all the sounds disabled in BIOS
and I have the XP control panel set to NO SOUNDS/SCHEME.

if I am typing and hit some keys are the same time or some FN key maybe, the laptop BEEPS if the sound has been up.

I used to just leave the sound off, but with iTunes and stuff..now I cant.

is there any other place to shut off any sounds except for music?

I dont need to be told when I do a bad key sequence when typing an email or a web page form!

In Device Manager choose View-Show Hidden Devices from the menu, under Non-Plug and Play Devices disable Beep. Not sure if you have to reboot to make it active, but that should remove the annoying beep.

EXCELLENT!!

This worked. Yes, I had to reboot to make it effectively disabled.
I would have NEVER found this on my own.

Thanks so much !!!

Has anyone ever figured out the rationale behind the Beep device, and why it only activates under certain multiple-keypress scenarios?
