Insert your own sound file

using System.Media;

namespace SimpleSound
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        SoundPlayer mySound = new SoundPlayer("sound.wav");
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {


        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            mySound.PlayLooping();
        }

        private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            mySound.Stop();
        }
    }
}

If you're using Frogleg's approach, add a timer to your form and set its Interval property to:

20 x 60 * 1000 = 1200000 milliseconds.

and its Enabled property to false.

Now start the timer when you start playback:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
mySound.PlayLooping();
timer1.Start();
}

Finally, handle the timer's Tick event as follows:

private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
mySound.Stop();
timer1.Stop();
}

You could also use Console.Beep() to sound the buzzer every second say using a timer (set Interval property to 1000):

private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Console.Beep();
}

private void btnStart_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
timer1.Start();
}

private void btnStop_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
timer1.Stop();
}
