sorry if im not asking inthe right spot but, how do you turn the beeping off every time you hit a key onthe keyboard. I tried the click -n but it told me it didnt recognize click

any help would be greatly appreciated ( the beeping is not going over well in the surrounding cubicles)

thank you
scott
