[Tutor] "Sounding" Off, IDLE (Win7)

[Luke Paireepinart]

System Speaker is just the driver for the builtin speaker in your computer
(but it will redirect sound to your main speakers if you have some).  You'll
get sounds out of your regular speakers, you  just won't get system beeps
anymore, if you disable System Speaker.
