This is not a Mixvibes problem, its a windows problem... must be vista yours using, and an early one at that, this problem was ment to be fixed in vista RC2.

what version of windows vista are you using, have you been keeping on to of the windows updates?

i'll see if i can find the link to the hotfix for the issue again, been a long time from i needed it.

or you could just turn the windows sounds off, lol.

lol, oh yeah I remember this problem. This is indeed a Windows issue.

What you need to do is create a wave file that is silent (no sound period). After that, you go to the sounds options, click on default beep, and assign that silent.wav file to the default beep.

This issue was with the MFC CListCtrl class, any software that didn’t use a custom control list resulted in the default beep sounding during the use of list control to display icons with labels, as in the Windows Explorer, or columnar lists of text, with or without icons.

There was a hotfix released as a quick fix to the problem which accessed the device driver level using “waveOutSetVolume(NULL, 0x00000000)” to reduce the volume of that particular sound event...

This hot fix was for those using the early RC versions of vista for testing and developing, this issue caused minor but majorly annoying problems for those using VS.NET... People who made the leap to vista very early were sorted out via the Windows Update System...

So im intrigued to know why you still have this problem with your vista install... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Reporting problems is the best way to get the problems solved. That's not words.

(At 50 years old dont need them)


Tss, you are young at fifty, you can still drive a car or use a MIDI controller. :lol:
