As far as I can tell, some hardware manufacturers attempt to emulate the old BIOS "Beep" command via the sound card, usually with poor results. Some manufacturers just ignore it completely. Win-Test uses the BIOS beep because that was the easiest way to do it, at least in the old Windows 95 days.<div>

There have been some reports of poor CW keying by Win-Test, which were cured by specifying NOSOUND.</div>
