  1. Turning off loud beep when using mouse keys


    I prefer to control my pointer with the keyboard, especially on a laptop, as I abhor trackpads.One problem I'm facing is the obnoxious loud beep that occurs when pressing NumLock to turn the Mouse keys on or off.Is there a way to suppress it, and if so, how ?I'm using the following settings. As you can see, "Make a sound when turning a setting on or off" is already unchecked, but that doesn't suffice, apparently.

    :)

  2. Mouse Keys will not turn off

    Hi Casey,

    Thank you for a detailed description of your issue. Since you've already tried unchecking the option
    Use the numeric keypad to move the mouse and still getting the same result, I suggest that you also turn off the option
    Use mouse keys when NumLock is on. On the Change sign-in settings, select the
    Make the mouse easier to use > Select Set up Mouse Keys, then make sure to unchecked
    or turned off the following click Apply, then OK.

    • Turn on Mouse Keys - Use the numeric keyboard to move the mouse the screen.
    • Use Mouse Keys when NUM LOCK is Off.

    Once done, go back to the Change sign-in settings, then this time click the
    Make keyboard easier to use, then unchecked the
    Turn on Mouse Keys. Click Apply, then OK.

    Once done, close your Control Panel page and check if Mouse Keys still enables automatically.

    If you have additional questions, or if the issue persists after the troubleshooting steps above, please let me know by replying to this thread. This way, I'll get notified and respond back to you as soon as I can.

    Regards.

    Additional very loud dialup beep

    When making a call, some of the times the regular beep/buzz on the other end is accompanied by a very loud extra beep. I have no idea why this other beep turns up, but it's very annoying since I have to pull the phone away from my ear or take the headphones
    off until the person I'm calling answers. In some cases, the extra beep has caused the phone to go into loudspeaker mode, thus beeping *extremely* loud.

    This happens irregularly, but very often. I'm using a HTC Radar with a Halebop subscription in Sweden.
