Open device manager, click on the view menu and tick the option to show hidden devices. Scroll down to the Non Plug and Play devices and expand it and right mouse click on Beep and choose disable. On Vista you can unistall the driver. Stops the beep for good. Also, there is a way to do it via group policy editor but I don't know that one.
