As a head-down typist I rely on the beep sound whenever the 'capslock' key is hit accidentally. Having installed Windows 7 quite recently I tried to set this 'alarm' up but I cannot hear any beep sound. I have checked and double checked the appropriate settings in the keyboard options of the Easy Access Centre and all the right boxes are ticked. The other sounds on my computer are ok , I can listen to music, tv, radio etc.. all through my speakers.
The 'beep' should come from the computer itself and I assume there is no problem there as the BIOS beeps are able to be heard. I would like to get this running again but I am at a loss as to what to try next.
I should add that I have just re-booted into Windows XP (dual boot) and this function is working properly so it looks like a Windows 7 problem. Could it be Registry based?.
