Running Win XP Professional. When I press the buttons on my laptop to increase or decrease the volume, my computer plays notes. How do I shut it off?

Brian,
Is this when BIAB is running or when you use your computer normally?
Regards,
Noel

Got to be a setting to disable audible sounds in your Sounds and Audio Devices within the Control Panel. Since the settings are different for each audio device I don't see them on this computer, but I am pretty sure I have seen them in the past and disabled to avoid loud beeps thorugh my monitors during music work.
Edit:
I believe you are talking about System Sounds. This are controlled in the Sounds and Audio Devices within the Control Panel. Select the Sounds Tab, then for Sounds scheme, select no sounds. That will quite all system sounds or you can customize which sounds you want on this same tab.

Sorry. When BIAB is running only. And only when a song is actually playing.

Yieps, that certainly is strange behavior.

Forget what it's called, but it's a wizard, a part of BIAB, that lets you play notes from your QWERTY keyboard. It can be turned on and off.

Is the "Wizard" button checked? (at the top, toward the right). Here's a desciption from the Help - (btw, I'm not sure what version my Help file is, but my Wizard checkbox is in the upper right, not "to the right of the song title", as it says below) : "The Wizard is a 'play along' feature that allows you to use the computer keyboard to play along with Band-in-a-Box. The neat part about the Wizard is that it ensures that whatever you play sounds good..... ....How To Turn The Wizard On/Off Click on the checkbox to the right of the song title to turn the Wizard feature On/Off. Or Choose Wizard Playalong feature from the Play menu. (The Wizard is only active during playback.) How To Play The Wizard The Wizard Keys are active during playback. The active keys are the lower 2 rows of the keyboard." So, Brian, I'm sure others will chime in too, but in the meantime you could do a search on "QWERTY" (which is slang for your computer keyboard) on your Help file's Search tab - it brings up quite a few results.

That's what it was-the Wizard. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain! I missed that in the manual somehow. I appreciate the help guys.

One of the neatest things about the Playalong Wiz is that when you choose a harmonized voice you STILL can't 'play' a wrong note. It's way cool.
