I meant to respond to your post, but as a carrier of the procrastination
gene, never got around to it. If you have never resolved this, allow me
to cut and paste my recent reply to another poster with this problem.

I also experienced this annoyance after installing Vista, but after some
experimentation, was able to resolve it by removing everything under the
Registry Key "HKCU\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default\CCSelect ".

I have since come across this on MSDN if you require more information:

If you feel uncomfortable editing the Registry, I or someone else can
provide you with a file which will perform this for you.

In control panel Sounds, I selected the "No Sounds" sound scheme and
then modified it so that nothing ever makes a sound. I guess Money
has found a way to circumvent it by accessing the BIOS speaker or
where ever it's coming from.

What did you mean by "All of the Windows sounds are turned off."?
Were you referring to the box in Tools-> Settings-> ProgramSettings
and un-checking the box, or were you referring to something you did
in Windows?

Un-ticking the PlaySounds box in Tools-> Settings-> ProgramSettings
will turn off some sounds, such as when you launch Money, but it
does not kill the little feedback clicks and such.

What you could do is to find/create a quiet.wav file, and specify
that to each case that you want no corresponding sound for. You
could use Sound Recorder with no microphone attached to make such a
file.

Yes but I do want voluntary sounds such as DVDs, iTunes, or Media
Player.

Probably I could figure out if there is a way to disable the BIOS beep
but that's important for over heating warnings and other things. I'd
like to find out why it's only Money that keeps making this beep.

I understand what you mean by that: a BIOS beep.

If you want no sounds from Windows or applications, can't you just
turn down the volume all the way?

It isn't a Windows sound. All of the Windows sounds are turned off.
My computer doesn't make any sounds. This is the same sound you hear
on a desktop machine from the motherboard speaker. Not a WAV sound.
Just a loud beep.

I would go to
Start-> ControlPanel-> SoundsAndAudioDevices-> Sounds
In the ProgramEvents, scroll down to the MicrosoftMoney section.
You should be able select an event, and press the right-arrow
button (play button) to hear the associated sound. If an event
does not have an appropriate sound, you could change the association
by selecting a different WAV file for the event.

I'm running MS Money 2004 on Vista Home Premium. When I click a stock
in the portfolio view, I get a loud computer beep (not a Windows
sound). I have Money sounds turned off. This is the only time I hear
the loud beep. I'm running on a laptop. Any ideas on what's causing
the beep and how to turn it off?
