Not that I know of.... Personally I'd just pull out the cable.
Then you don't get the POST beep either...
If you find out a less intrusive way, let me know!

If the speaker is connected to the soundcard, you might be able to mute that output it in the soundcard properties.
Personally, I'd just pull the cable. It's socketed anyway, easy to put back on.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.Comment

You may be able to turn it off in the BIOS.
Or just go to Device Manager > System Speaker
and try disabling it. You might have to show
hidden devices to be able to view it.Comment

wombat: no, its not connected to the sound card, it would be useless to me if i did because the only time i really need the beeps is during the bios initialization, which is when the sound card doesnt beep.
cbman: no i don't want to bother with that.
orangejulius: hmm, i tried that once, it didn't work for some reason. will try again though<font size="1">Gigabyte GA-6VXC7-4X MoBo
