how to turn off the annoying loud "ding sound"at end of dictation/spell check. - MalteseMom
Posted: Nov 22, 2011
I thought there was a way to make that annoying ding sound at the end of the dictation when spell check is complete to sound softer. I have Windows XP. I keep looking in the control panel but it does not seem familiar to me as to the way I used to do it. In some reports if the dictator talks low and then when you reach the end it blasts out my eardrum. TIA.
Scroll down - this question has already been - asked
[ In Reply To ..]Scroll down the page a bit to a post by "snowbunny" titled "turn off all sounds". This might help - it worked like a charm for me.
Dont you hate it when people say see message below - Grrrrr
[ In Reply To ..]Here's what I did: It might be different on your control panel, and may say Hardware and Sound, but the process is mostly the same. I did it, and it works beautifully!
Start
Settings
Control Paenl
Sounds and Sudio Devices
Under Sounds tab, Drop down under Sound Scheme, check "No sound".
Thank you so much!! - MalteseMom
[ In Reply To ..]I feel the same way about the "see message below." I must say though this OP was more kind about it than others I have read. I appreciate all the help.
Loving it!!! I feel like my ears have been saved. - MalteseMom
[ In Reply To ..]I just tried it! Your an ear saver! For the life of me I forgot all about the sound schemes drop down box. Thanks again

Help! Spell Check Issue.
Dec 04, 2009
Thanks for your help. For some reason, my spellcheck is doubling twice. For example, if I hit F7 in the report or even upload, it would highlight a word misspelled such as Treadmil (need the extra "l" at end of word). Spellcheck will highlight word and replace. Then it will state "Spellcheck complete" and will do it AGAIN. It will then change the "treadmil" word to not only right the first time by adding an extra "l", but will add ANOTHER "l" to spell TREADMILLL. Ho ...

Is There A Way To Spell Check Just One Word
Oct 03, 2012
in DQS 7.1 without it checking the whole report? I have tried highlighting the word and hitting F7 and putting the curser on the word and hitting F7, and that does not work. I was told to right-click on the word and a list of options will come up, and nothing happens when I do that. Everything I try it still checks the whole document and not just one selected word. Any tips would be appreciated, thanx. ...

Spell Check Not Working Properly

Be careful with the spell check. It is not working properly. I just let something go through that I thought spell check would catch and I would fix it when I came to the end of the document. I just realized that I let it go through and it never picked up my error. :( Also, did anyone else notice that when the new version 6.1 was installed some of your expansions were lost? This happened to me. I lost many of my expansions. ...

IT Or SOUND CARD Causing Hard-to-hear Dictation?
Oct 20, 2011
Anyone having dictation sound quality problems? I do not know how to describe it or determine from whence it comes - is it a software issue, a sound card issue, a memory issue. It most certainly is not a "phone" or "dictator" issue, although they can make it worse. I hear a tinny wave-like change to voice and pauses, affecting the landmark consonants. It sounds electrical - I used to call it distortion. Now it seems to be 1/2 of my day - some are MT, some ME. ...

Mr. Dictator: You do not need to repeat your name and spell it twice, dictate the patient's name and spell it twice, along with repeating the MR# twice before dictating your procedure, then do it all over again at the end of the procedure! Geez, I get it.. Last job of the day, thank goodness! ...
