Making laptop beep when it is unplugged?

Hi, with my fiance's last laptop, I enabled a beep sound so that he would know if he had accidentally unplugged it. It also beeped when he plugged it back in so he knew that it was pushed in enough and was charging (He's blind).

On his new laptop, I can't seem to find where this option is. Any ideas?

They are both Acer and both Windows 7. I have googled and all I can find are various methods to switch the beep off. I thought following them might lead me to how to switch it on, but they are all ways involving muting various sound options, rather than actually switching on or off the beep.

I definitely did something to enable it- I remember seeing the option in a list. It didn't come already doing it.

Any suggestions would be welcome!

Google revealed several results suggesting there should be "connect power" and "remove power" entries in the Sounds option in Control Panel - not on my Acer 5920 with Vista.

I did find this suggesting that its a BIOS alarm setting.

The only way that I can think of is to go into the sound properties, click on speakers then properties in the BRHC and click levels and check see if it in their?
I know this worked on a friends laptop as he wanted it disabling, good luck hope you sort it out
