Q: Can I turn off the tap sound?

Yes, there are several registry keys that control the volume level of system sounds:


  [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Volume]
    "Key"=dword:10002       ; key clicks: 02 loud, 01 soft, 00 none
    "Screen"=dword:10002    ; tap volume: 02 loud, 01 soft, 00 none
    "Mute"=dword:7          ; 1=Notifications, 2=Apps, 4=Events, 7=Enable all sounds
    "Volume"=dword:FFFFFFFF ; system volume 0 min, FFFFFFFF max

Note: For builds made before 2004, you'll have to change these keys programmatically, as the current CE loader doesn't support changing the HKEY_CURRENT_USER key.

For further reading about Windows CE audio, please see the CE Audio topic index.

With the Bitsy-X, is it still the case that the registery keys must be changed programmatically if I want to get rid of the tap sound when the touch panel or keyboard is pressed? I have changed the "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Volume" keys via the adsload.reg file without success.

Hi Jim. I understand this is a BitsyX CE build issue that we're going to correct shortly. I think either build 4.10.19 or 4.10.20 should take care of this.
