The chime can be silenced by muting your audio volume (or, at least,
it could in the past --- although I've somehow developed the impression
this is not effective with Panther and newer Macs). Perhaps Tiger always
mutes the audio volume on shutdown for some reason?
Hi
Having speakers or amps plugged into the audio port that are turned off
or down will do it too.
Bad RAM did it on my B&W G3 once and badly configured IDE devices too.
Good luck
