No sounds, no beeps

[wangchung]

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:

Thanks Crahak!

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

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..
