    Beeps when playing audio on windows 7 x64


    i just bought a used laptop, and i notice when wearing headphones that i hear a beep, i usually hear it when playing a sound. And if i pause the video i get another beep about 30 seconds after. is this a bad thing, this laptop is a dell e5420 with a i5. i dont know if i ever hear it while regular use on the computer though.

    Go the Panel for System Sounds and disable system sounds, then see if you still get it.

    That is located in the Control Panel/Hardware and Sound.

    i restored the laptop to windows 7 ultimate, and used driver pack solution to find the correct audio driver. looks like its fixed.

I usually watch my AVI, MP4 files on Windows Media Player. I think something may have been clicked on the codec or something and now while watching a movie, every few seconds the audio on the video cuts out and makes a small beep, then cuts back to the movie's audio. Any idea how to fix this?
In Mac OS Quick time does this (I can have 10 audios all playing simultaneously). WMP nor VLC seem capable of this. I need a solution to this for both Linux/ubuntu and Windows 7. Maybe there's a way to customize vlc or wmp? Thanks.
