One minor annoyance on my XP - equipped PC is the beep that is issued when I change the volume level. Since I'm doing this, usually, when I'm surfing at night, and don't want surprise sounds to bother my wife, but I still want to hear them (else I'd just hit MUTE), it's a problem.
Turns out there are a slew of articles on how to address this. The one I used said that if you go into Hardware, then Device Manager, and tell it to show hidden devices, down in the Non-Plug and Play Drivers is one called BEEP. If you disable that -- no more beep! (It'll then tell you that you have to reboot; not really, but it only took a short time, so I didn't care.)
