This involves some registry changes. It depends on how comfortable you are tinkering with the Windows Registry. I would recommend backing up the registry before you edit it.
Click Start -> Run -> type in regedit -> Click Open
visit this website and scroll down till you see the Disable Balloon Tips and click on it. If you are using IE you should be prompted to download a .reg file. Right click on and select install

You can do it easier (and faster) if your use Tweak UI, which is part of the Microsoft PowerToys. There are some other cool Powertoys there also...check 'em out.
