How to disable sound when error occurs

How to disable sound when error occurs

[Wang, Zhu]

I am frustrated by a probably very simple problem:

Whenever I made a mistake, e.g., scroll up the mouse using the middle wheel when the pointer is at the beginning of buffer, some sound arises. But I don't need it to bother me. How can I disable it? After I did some search and looked at help files, I still have no clue.

Thanks for any help.

I put

(setq visible-bell t)

in my .emacs

,----[ C-h v visible-bell RET ]
| visible-bell's value is t
| 
| Documentation:
| *Non-nil means try to flash the frame to represent a bell.
| 
| See also `ring-bell-function'.
| 
| You can customize this variable.
