Hi.

The internal speaker is killing me, slowly.

Apart from ripping the fscking wire out, is there a way to do it?

PCSpeaker is muted in alsamixer but still the ****ing thing is beeping at me.

Aghhhh!!!!

Thanks

A lot of BIOSes have an option to turn it off.

Apart from ripping the fscking wire out, is there a way to do it?

I had no idea that wires could do file checks!! Does the fscking wire work with multiple file systems?

I usually just open up my case, find the wire that goes to the speaker (usually it's a red and black twisted pair), and gently unplug it.

Yip, the internal speaker works via the bios i thought... Not sure though, but it's the same sound anyway... So you'll have to cut the wires or unplug them if possible .
I once tried muting all system sounds, but that doesn't seem to help a lot.

Don't cut anything! The internal speaker can be simply unplugged from your motherboard (the speaker is part of the case, not the motherboard itself).

Ok, got some photos, could someone tell me where it is? I dont have my mobo's manual anymore (its a MSI KT3 Ultra II)

That little bundle of wires (in the first picture) should have one that has a black plug on the end that's slightly larger than all the rest. It might actually say "Speaker". That's the one you want to unplug. The actual color of it varies from case to case, but mine is black and red wires.

AGHHHHH

I found the one. called speaker and unplgugged it 4 pins, red and black wire......

I STILL HAVE THE BEEPS!!!!

It sounds differenct, more 'tinny' but i have the ****ing beeps!!

Aghhhh!!

I have looked in the perphials section of my BIOS and the only mention of sound is AC'97 (onboard). ?????

What program is giving you the beeps? Your console program could be producing the beep rather than your system speaker.

You are a star!!

Changed gnome-terminal (using XFCE, but love gnome terminal) settings "terminal bell"

Thanks mate!!

One thing tho, where was the beep coming from? It does after BIOS checks too.
