I connected a motherboard speaker directly to the board and can't get it to beep. Got the speakers in packs of 20 and tested few of them but still nothing. Have windows 7 on SSD.

The red speaker wire has the little arrow on the connector to say it is + but I've reversed the connection and still nothing. Did windows 7 disable the beep feature? I can't remember, but I think it is supposed to be beep after BIOS checks everything and before windows.

Yeah, I've been out of the loop with the latest technology as I was running two 14 year old dell dimensions before building my i5's recently. So used to hearing the little beep on the dells that it felt strange without it.
