Howling
Howling is the high-pitched whining or shrieking that
is sometimes generated by the speaker when the
microphone input setting is on and the volume is at its
maximum setting. The default for the microphone
output setting is OFF, so howling will not occur.
However, sometimes a software application is shut
down with the microphone output setting left ON. When
using such applications, be sure to switch the
microphone output setting to OFF after use.
Countermeasures
If the Windows 95 desktop is displayed, set the volume
of the microphone output to minimum or off using the
software volume control.
If any other screen is displayed, press ,<Fn> and <F5>
reduce the volume.
