I have an alarm going off randomly on my rig and cannot find its source, so I am wondering if there's some kind of software that will trace it for me? I have been to windows "Sounds" and changed the default to "No Sound" while checking some of my hardware, but I have not been able to find where or why I am getting the alarm. I am new to W11, so I haven't learned about all its issues yet. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

EDITED TO ADD: I believe I have found the culprit beeping: It is a stand-alone cd/dvd player which I had plugged into the top usb port of my rig. I unplugged it and reset "windows sound" to default setting, and left the player unplugged and not a sound did it make. Then just to see if I was right, I plugged it back up, same settings and the beeps began again, as did the on and off of the Device Manager field. I just wanted to make this update, so as not to continue the post. Thank you!
