CAPS LOCK AlertEverytime I turn Caps Lock on or off there's a little notification which pops
up in the bottom corner of my window which tells me that I've just turned my Caps Lock on or off. Is there a way to disable that notification? Thanks, John Do you have a Logitech keyboard or mouse?

that feature. Windows XP has an accessibility feature called ShowSounds. If you look it up in the Help and Support Center you'll find a full explanation, including how to turn it on and off. --- Leonard Grey Errare humanum est John Walker wrote: Show quote > I am using a USB Dell keyboard and mouse which are plugged into my Dell laptop. > > "Leonard Grey" wrote: > >> Do you have a Logitech keyboard or mouse? >> >> --- >> Leonard Grey >> Errare humanum est >> >> John Walker wrote: >>> Everytime I turn Caps Lock on or off there's a little notification which pops >>> up in the bottom corner of my window which tells me that I've just turned my >>> Caps Lock on or off.

In my case, besides likeing the little "tool tips", which go away in just a second or two, I also like the extras programmed into the keyboard and the ability to turn MS Office shortcuts on and off. I guess it is a personal decision of yours if that kinda stuff is more of a bennie or an annoyance. Good luck and have a great week! -- HP, aka Jerry Alert?

.... > Alert? Where's the alert referenced in your subject? Sounds like my HP, which shows things like "caps lock/unlock", "num lock", "scroll lock" and the kinda things that little LED lights used to show on older keyboards.

I grew up, so to speak, with keyboards that actually showed the caps lock key locked down on typewriters then computer KBs that had little lights for the various key locks. All that has gone the way of the dodo bird. But, to your question, if your KB has some software that you installed to make it do all kinds of fancy things, e.g., program function keys, use of special keys to launch MS office and the like as does my HP, then you could always uninstall it. -- HP, aka Jerry |
