win2k machine, if I go to Control Panel, then System, then click on the Hardware
tab, then the Device Manager button, expand the System Devices item and scroll
down until I find System Speaker. You can righ click on System Speaker and
there should be an option to disable it.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

Compaq Evo Internal Speaker<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Hello all,</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Sorry about the OT but I'm running out
of places to turn. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I have Compaq Evo 1.5mhz computer at
work running Win 2k.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>The company got involved in online
training that has sound incorporated, however do not want to bother any
surrounding patrons, so I figure I'd plug my headphones into the Headphone jack
in the front, and turn the speaker off so that no one could hear and I could
turn it up a little. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Well Guess What.. you can't turn the
freegin internal speaker off<SPAN class=062132814-24062003>,</SPAN> its always
on.. at least I can't find it.. I am hoping someone out there has an EVO and
could tell me if there is a way to turn this internal speaker off. I even opened
the case, you can't even unplug the stupid thing. YET another reason to hate
Compaq in my book.. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>thanks,</FONT></P>
