    Hello!

    Is there a way to get rid of the beeping sounds that are made when you press a special button or use the volume control. Perhaps locating the wav file if there is one?

    I have a Sony Vaio AR790U/B with a clean install of Win7 64-bit and the special buttons drivers I used were from the AW series.

    S.Prime,

    THANK YOU!!!! and THANK YOU!!! oh and thank you! Those sounds along with IE and Windows Explorer clicking sounds were driving me crazy.

    Just in case anyone else; to turn off those clicking sounds you here when you move about in IE or Windows Explorer: Go into Personalization > Sounds > Scroll down to Windows Explorer and select "Start Navigation" and then select "None" for the sound. Back at the top click on "Save As" after naming this new profile otherwise Windows will revert back and turn the silly clicking back on later.
