Stop the Beeping!!!

Recently I was working on a PowerShell script which involved translating byte arrays into strings using the appropriate encoding.  Unfortunately I kept getting the wrong choice for encoding and printed out essentially random data to the console screen. 

Unfortunately random data + windows console screens = beeps, beeps and lots more beeps. 

What's even worse is these beeps queue up.  Almost a full minute after a given encoding mistake I was still paying the price.  Highly annoying.

There is no way to disable the beeps on an individual console level.  But it can be disabled on a system wide level.  Beep is a windows service so it just needs to be stopped

net stop Beep

This does need to be executed with Admin privileges.  After that I can code beep free.
