My new T61p shipped with this awesome beep that would go off whenever the power state changed. Beep when it comes out of hibernation. Beep when you plug it in. Beep, beep beep beeeeppppp…. annoying & embarrassing. I’ve been generally very pleased with my T61p, but seriously, how does a default setting like that get out the door? And seriously, why did it take two months before I found the time to figure out how to change it?
Let’s turn it off!
- It’s a bios beep. During startup press F1 to get into the bios ulitity (alternatively, press the ‘Blue ThinkVantage Button’ and then press F1 at the first menu.
- Config->Alerts and just disable them all. No more beeps!
- Save and Exit.
