I've asked this in comp.os.os2.misc newsgroup, also, but in case someone is here who doesn't read the newsgroups, I posted this here, also.
I'm using eCS 1.2R. I have, among other apps, WPSWizard and xCenter 1.07 (updated over eCenter, per Herbert Rosenau's instructions in the FidoNet OS/2 echo when I asked about xCentter vs. eCenter.) Whenever I click on a desktop object or object in a folder, I hear a tiny beep. I have no idea why, and nobody has been able to deduce why yet (I got several replies, which I appreciated.) Checkini and Cleanini have been run, and the beep remains. There must be some reason for it.
Thanks for reading,
Alan
That beep is probably from xwp. There are log files on the root of your boot drive and some in var\log. I would do a dir *.log /od right after a beep to see which is being updated. At a guess, uninstall and reinstall of xwp would fix it.
This is probably caused by having "extended system sounds" turned on in the XWorkplace, setup,features, general feartues tab. With this turned on you should also get a vocal message when shutting down. If you don't like the "bep" unmark it.
Hope this solved you're problem.

Thank you. This seems to have stopped the beep. What do I lose by turning off "Extended System Sounds," besides the beep?
I never got a vocal message when I shut down.
You loose nothing but an annoying vocal shutdown message and couple of other un-interesting sounds. (noise's!)
