Hey I got the same problem, I press "4,5,6" or "g,h,j" or "t,y,u" etc random combination it causes the same 'beep' too. I notice the 'beep' volume is depending on your volume setting.

Initially when I first heard it, I got quite a shocked because I was working real late and it was a quiet night with no one around then suddenly...... "BEEP" !

So anyone knows how to turn it off without adjusting the volume setting?

I found the solution for this problem please refer to the steps below ...


Yup, present on most Thinkpads and, for that matter, laptops in general.

Bring up the Control Panel, then click on System and bring up the "Hardware" tab and click on Device Manager. After you have done that, click on View>"Show Hidden Devices" and expand "Non-Plug and Play Drivers" by clicking on the little plus sign next to it. Scroll down to where you find "Beep" and disable that device driver. Then click OK/Apply to save changes and test it out. You shouldn't have the beep when you hit three keys anymore afterwards

Thanks Nyxator. It works Now I can type at full speed without worrying on the beeping sound. Btw, why Thinkpads includes such a features. I don't find it useful at all.

maybe u can try to reinstall the utility again?

i'm now using kingston kvr alone and runs flawlessly

what u wan to do is u need not mix up different frequency/timing ram, if u r goin to run dual channel, same chipset/brand is advisable

as far as i know, only T60 is available, so far hvnt seen R60 with tht kind of spec appeared here, maybe the high end T & R hv similar price thus people will rather go for T series

T series = magnesium alloy casing
R series = ABS plastic

just for ur info the price for tht spec is sky high, hv a look at the thread below

Hi...

I want to buy 2x Kingston 512MB ddr2 667MHz for my R60. Is the pc fair having ram promotion now?

When can we expect the widescreen T60 to be available in Malaysia?

i buy my r60 almost 1 month ago from tecdos -lyp , how to activate warranty or maybe too late

i want add that i love it

just brought 2 unit of Corsair 512MB ddr2 667MHz ram. When i plug in both ram, my r60 failed to power on.

i will only power on when i mix 1 unit of corsair with my existing kingston 256MB 667MHz ram or just by 1 corsair itself.

wonder why i cant power on with both corsair ram?

help!!!!!!

to make sure it's not the ram problem, u tried both corsair stick w the mixture of existing kingston

i doubt the incompatibility issue, make sure u slot the ram firmly, if it's really ram problem, go back and exchange with 1gb single stick, dual channel runs faster theoretically, but we wont notice in the real usage unless u r do bency

i tried mine w 1gb kingston mix w other ram no problem, anyhow now i'm using 1gb single stick, looking to upgrade later

thanks for ur idea! i tried and found out that one of the corsair ram having problem, cant start the pc by itself.

tomorrow will go to the pc fair again to change a new one. thanks bro!!!

however, dual channel ddr did makes some different! u can google for more info.

no problem

btw how bout u google the benefit of dual channel for me?

i always feels tht dual channel is not important for laptop, as the limitations of chipset and processor eg 400mhz, 533mhz, 667mhz, plus 2 stick ram = more power consumption if there's a choice giving 1.5gb ddr2 533 single channel vs 1gb ddr2 667 dual channel, i'll rather go for higher ram capacity

unless i'm on a desktop, dual channel will give more significant result, as the proc is 800mhz or higher, with additional OC, we'll only make use of dual channel maybe i'm wrong, but thts my analysis so far

Is there any ref website 4 this issue?
