[dba-Tech] Loud and obnoxious beeps

Hmm.... That may have done it.  I will check back with results.  There was
NO "sound scheme" selected, so I selected "no sound", whereupon it beeped at
me and displayed a warning about saving my old scheme.   I suspect that
having selected no sound I will in fact get no sounds now.  How the sound
scheme got set to nothing is beyond me.  But there you have it.

Thanks,

did you log in with a different username? for some reason Windows assumes
that each new user wants to be beeped at when the last person didn't...

go to control panels, sounds, change the scheme to no sounds

Suddenly Windows is emitting totally obnoxious beeps in all kinds of
different programs, things like backspace when there is no place to
backspace to, whenever messages pop up etc.

No idea why but it didn't do that prior to yesterday.  And no, I cannot
remember doing anything to cause it, nor any install etc.

Heeeeelp, I'm going crazy being beeped at.
