Disconnecting the speaker is a workaround, not a solution. There is some logical reason that this is occurring, and it would be best to determine that.

Try starting Windows in safe mode. If that doesn't help, start a different operating system (e.g. DOS boot disk, Knoppix, etc) and see if it stops. If it only occurs in Windows, you have a Windows configuration problem or a certain program is causing it. If it occurs regardless of the operating system, it is a hardware or BIOS problem.
