[pchelpers] Re: Quite That Modem Tip From Ed West

Question: And this affects ONLY the noise coming through the speakers from the 
modem? We won't lose the sounds we LIKE and EXPECT to hear from our computer?
Interesting!

  A tip for you if you don't already know is one I've used for years. I really 
hate that racket modems make when they connect with the net. (Maybe I'm just a 
creaky old man:~ )
  In case you don't like it either: 
  In Windows 98 & Windows ME you click Start, Settings, Control Panel. 
  Double-click Modems. In the Modems Properties
  box click the General tab and click Properties. Under Speaker
  Volume,  move the slider to Off.

  You can also turn off the modem noise in Windows XP. Click Start,
  Control Panel. Double-click Phone and Modem Options. Select the
  Modems tab and click Properties. Select the Modem tab. Under
  Speaker Volume move the slider to Off.

  Best,
  Ed

  Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
