Pc Speaker

GWAR

<div class="IPBDescription">Why does it beep?</div> Whenever i hit the use key in NS it makes my internal PC speaker beep... Is it suppose to do this? because its VERY annoying

(I dont think its a bug....)

Keylock can cause it, maybe your holding down too many buttons or occasionally you get it from holding SPACE down too long.

If your use key is any of the "lock" keys(ie num-lock), then there is a setting that makes your PC internal speaker beep whenever it is hit... It can be disabled somewhere, not sure where.
What OS do you have?

And How do we get rid of this "Keylock" I press three buttons at once and get an angry beep and a pause in NS........

Get a mac :/ Im not sure what fixes it, but its NOT a setting. Might need a whole new computer for all I know... Try linux.

couldn't you make a simple script to bind a key so that you tap it once to use, then tap it again to stop?

Pulse

believe it or not its a sound effect and not your pc speaker, I have my pc speaker off and I still hear it because its the marine "use" sound, try aliens and you wont hear it because they have a different sound effect.

Shockeh

I took my PC Speaker completely out. Years ago. Pointless piece of *expletive*

Im running windows XP. Whenever i hit the use key in NS it makes the PC speaker on my comp beep, this is the only mod i have ever seen that does this....

BTW: Sticky keys are off, and im pretty sure its not numlock

SemperFi

I get that in OFP after holding enter down to sprint for long periods of times. Damn is it ever loud.

Hehe...except when you somehow fscked over your computer and have to listen to the BIOS status beeps from the PC speaker upon startup <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

I don't think there's anything wrong with your computer. I tried this just sitting here on the web. I hold down a few keys and after a little while my comp starts beeping.

I'm not sure but it could be just the computer telling you that it thinks there may be a problem i.e. some keys may have become stuck.

look at your BIOS
