The noise is unnerving!!

I keep getting that sound you get when you plug or unplug hardware,but no message in a bubble ,checked for loose wires but everything seems fine?? Win xp home Thanks for your help Rand

 

Should I post this ? somewhere else??

 

Welcome to MajorGeeks
Check these settings
Start>Control panel>Sound, Speech, and Audio Devices>Sound And Audio Devices>Sounds

Now scroll down to the sound you want to disable

 

No idea why its doing this?? Thanks blades

 

loose connection on a piece of hardware?

 

Yep, what Lev said might be right, check your connections again

 

your not using anything like freeram xp pro for example. It playes the windows sound everytime it auto free's ram unless you disable the sound in the freeram settings. Or if not a usb connection perhaps a shagged usb port

 

yes I am using xp pro but I know that sound well, this is the hardware sound down note when unplugging and up when plugging in ,very strange . checked for loose wires will check again.Thanks everyone.......... Rand

 

just noticed in your post about a shagged usb ,this is new to me I just built this thing about 16 months ago .........??????????????? Soooooooooo what is a shagged usb?? Thanks again

 

LOL..."shagged" is UK/Aussie slang meaning it is screwed. Finito. It no longer functions correctly because it is bust Another term would be to say it is "knackered".

 

as in the spy who shagged me (F*****- up) ..gotcha

 

Now in that context to the UK, it means something completely different, and the word was starred out of the movie title in England, so not to cause offense. Brit english is just confusing

 

Oops sorry what Lev said. Thanks Lev

 

So trial and error on the shagged usb I suppose ?? Seems all my usb ports are workin'.......................

 

What about your printer/scanner? Check all peripheral device connections?

 

ThinkI found it ,,my card reader makes the noise when I wiggle it Thanks Lev and everyone.Rand
