How do I disable the low battery beep?

[gmak03]

I did the bios update and I can confirm I have the latest bios but the beeping sound still comes back and it can either come out of the speakers or from a different part of my notebook when I mute the sound. Still the bios update doesn't resolve this issue.

The worst beep sound ever for a laptop i owned in my life. This is seriously an annoying and irritating sound which beeps every 30 seconds. I had a chat with those experts(as they call) whom themselves didn't know what is happening. 

Seriously i am writing this with most frustration today. As it makes everyone around to look back at me for that annoying sound everytime. I came to know about this after 20 days. Else i would have happily returned their product. I made a worst decision in my laptop, period.

Terribly annoying sound !

I changed the critical battery level from 12% to 0%.  That seems to of have worked.

Hey everyone,

Has anyone tried changing the PC Beep volume?

Right-Click on the Speaker symbol in the system tray > Click Playback Devices > Right-Click on 'Speakers'/'Speakers and Headphones' > Click Properties > Click Levels tab > Change or Mute the PC Beep volume.

Please let me know if you have any questions or if this suggestion helps (this could help others with the same issue). I'll keep an eye out for any replies.

Changing the speaker/headphone level doesn't help. The beeps are not coming from the speakers, they're coming from the Mobo--they're BIOS beeps. Somehow the Firmware update fixed it once, but the problem has returned. And it truly is a problem. Really regretting this purchase.

I'm actually referring to the PC Beep volume which just happens to be tucked inside Speakers/Headphones Properties. I know that changing the regular volume on the computer wouldn't affect the beep but perhaps changing the PC Beep volume would?

• Right-Click on the Speaker symbol in the system tray > Click Playback Devices > Right-Click on 'Speakers'/'Speakers and Headphones' > Click Properties > Click Levels tab > Change or Mute the PC Beep volume.

Hope this helps 🙂

Jano450,

Did you try the steps I posted above?

The BIOS update didn't remedy the situation, all it did was allow me to lower the low and citical battery levels to about 2%, and all this does is delay the window that tells you about the low battey from popping up, but the beeping still happened at 12% so it was completely useless. I tried the steps posted above but I don't see anything about PC beep volume. There was only speaker volume and mono mix volume. Now muting only one of these at at time won't stop it because the low battery beep utilizes both of these things, so you have to mute both of them. I can confirm that muting both mono mix and the speakers will stop the beeping. BUT who wants to do all of that everytime you have a low battery? Plus, I don't want it to beep AT ALL, I don't want to wait for the first beep and then mute it, I don't even want it to beep once. But thank you Axshun Jaxun as this is the most effective solution on here so far.
