windows - .Net WinForm System Beep on a 64 Bit OS

Question

My application needs to beep when validation fails so the user (who may be several feet away) may hear it. I'd like to use the Console.Beep() but this is unavailable in a x64 environment (see the remarks). There may or may not be speakers in/at the computer, so I can't use System.Media.SystemSounds.Beep.Play().

The current target platform is a x86 environment, but I'd like to have the ability for the application to run in x64 also.

Is there a way to do this or should I just give up?

Edit: Added link to the method.

Answer 1

Beep has been removed as a native function from all x64 platforms (so no managed version of course), there was a Microsoft Connect issue that petitioned to return it.

We use a different trick to discover servers, we remote eject the dvd drive, and the drive with the tray open is the one were looking for :)
