How to mute the windows beep....

This is height of plagiarism. I am copy pasting a blog.. without mentioning its name..., on how to mute the windows beep.
The steps are;
1. Right-click on My Computer
2. On the Hardware tab, click on [Device Manager]
3. On the "View" menu, select "Show hidden devices"
4. Under "Non-Plug and Play Drivers", right-click "Beep"
5. Click "Disable"
6. Answer [Yes] when asked if you really want to disable it
7. Answer [No] when asked if you want to reboot
8. Right-click "Beep" again.
9. Click "Properties"
10. On the "Driver" tab, set the Startup type to Disabled
11. Click [Stop]
12. Click [OK]
13. Answer [No] when asked if you want to reboot
For preventive measures you can also go to the registry.. and try out.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Sound
Find the "Beep" key on the right-hand side and change the value to "no".
Now pray once for its windows.. u never know.. if it would work... :)

Ok suppose it worked...
I have a case.. and i have no idea. i am working on a remote machine.. if i off the beep it would off the beep of that remote machine hardware.. and i am not the administrator of the system through which i remotely access the 'beep' machine..Solutions ??????
