[Dx4win] No System Beep

Wed, 2 Jan 2002 00:00:10 -0600

Missing beep update:

I may not be the best case study since I had a hard drive crash a couple of
weeks ago.  I had to reinstall the upgrade for Windows 98SE,
Norton AntiVirus 2001 and several other applications--so a lot of things
changed.  After I reinstalled everything, the system beeps worked for a
while.

One thing I do remember is that I did change the setup to allow CW alerts
just to try them out.  They worked fine, but I decided to go back to just
plain system beeps.  When I tried to change it back, all I hear now is a
faint click--no beep.    So I wonder if DX4WIN makes some change to a
.dll when you select CW Alerts, but then does not reinstall the same .dll or
.wav file if you try to go back.

I am using Version 4.7.
