    PC Speaker...

    Does anyone know how to shutoff the pc speaker? Or reset it? like make it play 1 beep, then shut off so it shuts up? This thing is really annoying... someone help. Thanks.

    Umm, this has nothing to do with programming, you have to go into your sound settings on your computer and turn of the computer speaker, and turn it onto something else, like your sound card, and if you dont have a sound card then get off the internet, using the internet before having a sound card is like learning how to sprint before learning how to crawl.
    Signature is optional, I didnt opt for one.

    Oh and to make it play a sound, go into DOS and type in beep, or use the command (in C++) system("beep");
    I think thats the right command, i know its something like that, maby its "play", i dont know, i havent spelunked into DOS into a long time.
