In a new install of Windows 10, every 10 seconds the bell rings in Ema= cs, and the message "<noname> is undefined" is printed. It = only happens when focus is on the Emacs window. This makes Emacs completely= unusable.

This is not a new thing - I have seen it before on Vista, Win 7, and a= nother Windows 10 system. I've never been able to figure out what is going = on - instead I've just installed XEmacs and used that.

However, I just built a new system and figured I'd give it another try= - the problem is still there. The only other reference to this problem tha= t I could find is at:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47069309/on-launch-emacs-makes-di= ng-sound-and-displays-noname-is-undefined-message

That posting seems to associate this issue with DishAnywhere.

Well, I'm not using DishAnywhere, but I am using the SlingPlayer app, = which is an ancestor of the DishAnywhere app. It just so happens that I had= SlingPlayer running at the time I brought Emacs up (I run SlingPlayer pretty much all the time on my system.). When = it is running, and I have focus on the Emacs window, the problem occurs.&nb= sp;

As far as I can tell, I see no problems when running SlingPlayer with = any other applications, including XEmacs. Only Gnu Emacs. There appears to = be some resource that both are using which causes this. I was thinking - is= it possible this has something to do with the emacs server/client stuff? If so, is there a potential work= around I could try? I really don't know how to chase this down more...

Thanks for taking a look at this.

Best regards,
