I have a friend who uses a program that is heavily
beep intensive, only the beeps the program emits
are useless and, worse, annoy those around him. So
I am asking you netFolx on behalf of the somewhat
annoyed colleagues of my friend:
 
IS THERE ANY WAY TO TURN THE SPEAKER OFF, SHORT OF OPENING THE BOX
AND CUTTING THE WIRES?
 
You know, something software based. I seem to remember 7 years ago
reading about the pc when it was introduced in Byte, and they said
the pc had all of these really neat "soft switches," one of which
controlled the speaker.
 
Seriously, somebody MUST have thought of a way to shut these puppies
up by now.
 
Reply by mail if you think this question is hopelessly elementary,
otherwise post it.
 
Thanks for your time. Share and enjoy!
