- strange noises through speakers
- Posted by MichaelY on July 6th, 2008
I occasionally get some strange noises through my speakers. They are
not any that I could find under the "Sounds" tab on the "Sounds and
Audio Devices Properties" menu. Is there a way to trace which program
is issuing the sounds?

It may not be a program, it could be your cell phone, cordless phone or
anything else that "transmits" RF energy, particularly if they're cheaper
unshielded speakers.

Doug,
Thanks for the quick reply. It's good to know that you are still
active for XP what with MS trying to jam Vista down our throats.
The noises are not random. They sound like any other system
notification sound and the same sounds randomly repeat from one time
to the next. I am befuddled.
My question remains: How can I trace the originating source of these
sounds?
Sincerely,
MichaelY

First thing I would try; change the "Default Beep" event to "None". Are
you still getting the sound?
