How do you enable the No Sounds scheme?

How do you disable the pc speaker/beep device?

What's the best way of setting TEMP/TMP variables? When exporting [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment], I get back hex values. Would like something a little cleaner.

Here's for the beep:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Sound]
"Beep"="No"

I'll see if I can locate my no sounds tweak next.

This should work to get rid of the sounds:

I haven't tried searching, but chances are they were alerady listed somewhere.

Thanks Crahak!

Now, any idea about the TEMP variables? I'd like to set them before RunOnceEx ...

thats been asked, plz search

Found it:

I know this is an old threat, but I've dug it up because I still have one last problem with setting sounds in my unattended install.

I'm trying to apply the NO SOUNDS scheme by default, and I pasted what Crahak posted into custom .THEME file. Since the theme is applied by winnt.sif, I was hoping that the theme would set the sounds to NO SOUNDS. But it doesn't work!

If I manually merge Crahak's registry entries, then the sounds are changed correctly. But it doesn't work if they are put into a .THEME file, which is applied by winnt.sif.

I am using VMWare Workstation 5.5.1, so not sure if this is related to that? Or maybe the syntax of those registry entries need to be modified when I put them in my .THEME file?

Thanks in advance, anybody who can hehlp..
