Random System sounds on Windows 7 RC1
Since installing Windows 7 RC1 on my HP tx2000 tablet PC as a fresh install (did not reformat drive) - while using my machine I seemingly randomly have the system sound play that sounds like the "hardware disconnect" sound. Don't have any hardware that's disconnecting - only USB items connected are a Logitech wireless trackball and a Seagate Free Agent 1 TB external hard drive. Any thoughts on what might be causing Win7 RC1 to randomly play the system sound?

Hi JohnThis has been reported as a bug in W7.Try going to Control Panel/Sounds and turning all of the sounds off. Reboot and enable the sounds again. Try to recreate the behavior.This has worked to resolve the behavior on some systems.Hope this helps.Thank You for testing Windows 7 Beta Ronnie Vernon MVP
