I have a software that results in a series of beeps from the internal speakers of my CPU.
What i need to do, is to count the number of these beeps emitted...as those are ABSOLUTELY essential for a program that i'm writing.
All online forums i've seen have given INFO on how to enable/disable the internal speakers....but nothing else.

Is it possible to , say, send these beeps (output of internal speakers) as input to any other program( something like matlab)....with the help of which i can count the number of beeps??? Or is there anything else i can do?

Ideas or implementation details would really be appreciated! Thanks! You could plug a microphone into the SOUND card, place it near the speaker and use some kind of recording software and later display the result e.g. in Wavedit as a waveform display and count the beeps manually or there MAY be some kind of analysis software that would do this. Well....i din WANT to count it manually....if there's any means of sending this sound(internally)...say thru some particular pins or some port or something...to some kinda software like MATLAB...or any software that would take this input and count the number of beeps...it'd b really helpful

Any thoughts or any softwares known that could do this?I think that you may as well accept that it is impossible.
well i would'nt say impossible! there's always a way to do things!
If we do come up with something, il definetely post an answer to this thread
But thank you anyway for your time.
Any other suggestions from anyone would be welcome.I found a way to count the number of beeps

Its simple programming using C....i found out the port which emits the beeps and from there wrote a program to count the beeps emitted from that port...

I wrote a program specific to my application though...but if anyone's interested to know how...then do post a query here...i'll change the code and put it up!

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
It is possible, after all
