Holding LALT (walk) in windowed mode makes some Windows alert noise - dstryr - 31.08.2011

I play in windowed mode, but when I press LALT (walk) Windows starts playing this dinging sound like when an error prompt pops up. It's really annoying. Anyone know the cause of this, or how to fix it?

Your keyboard may have some sort of gaming mode you could customize and enable. As far as the noise, see what you can do about (temporarily) disabling Windows OS sounds. You should be able to do this in the sound settings panel. I don't play in windowed mode, therefore I am not of much help to this situation. See if what I said above helps you at all though...

This would work, but it doesn't really address the problem as much as it just hides it under the table.

Perhaps. I don't really know, but see if "sticky keys" can do anything for you...

no. This is a sa-mp problem, I get this with windows xp

how to re-create:

hold alt ( walk key ) then click w, a, s, d. ( any of those )

It does not happen if you use arrow keys

nor does it happen with any other games / gta san andreas single player

I can also comfirm this, try changing your walk key to z or something.

I wasn't able to re-produce this by doing what Kar said.

click ALT, the "LEFT" ALT, then click w or a or s or d. it should start spamming error sounds (sounds that come up when you get a error or do something wrong on your windows xp)

or try clicking the movement buttons first, then hold the left alt. if it doesn't happen well, it doesn't happen on your computer

it happens on mines ;\, I can do a sound record with camstudio if anyone would like.

AFAIK you can turn that off. When the window appears, try to find some kind of "Settings" (I have XP, so idk how it works with Vista/7)
