Thinkpad T42: internal microphone or smoke alarm?

As I started up my Thinkpad T42 yesterday, it beeped loudly and continuously. I thought that it was an alarm, so I checked the BIOS and all alarms were turned off. Finally, Google found me a page that mentioned that leaving the internal microphone turned on for playback can cause this problem. Muting the microphone did fix my problem, so now there is one more page that documents this fix.
