Guest queen of hearts Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Could someone please tell me what to do in order to make a sound heard whenever I hit the Caps Lock key? I have tried everything in the control panel with no luck. Thanks.

Patti told you how to do this, but I have the same problem, and you may be interested on what I do. Rather than have it make a sound, I have the key turned off entirely, so hitting it does nothing. I do that with a little free program called SharpKeys at http://www.randyrants.com/sharpkeys/ I use the same program to turn off the Insert key, another key I never want to use, but someits press accidentally. -- Ken Blake - Microsoft MVP Windows: Shell/User Please reply to the newsgroup

Thanks Ken, but I can't have that key turned off because I acutally do use it quite frequently. I appreciate the response though. Rach.

I appreciate the response though. Rach. OK, if you use the key (I never do on purpose) then my solution wouldn't work for you. -- Ken Blake - Microsoft MVP Windows: Shell/User Please reply to the newsgroup > "Ken Blake" wrote: > >> "queen of hearts" <queen of hearts@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in >> message news:B8F45AD2-E915-4ED6-910D-CC5E6523FD87@microsoft.com... >> >> > Could someone please tell me what to do in order to make a sound heard >> > whenever I hit the Caps Lock key?

Open Accessibility Options: click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Accessibility Options. Turn on ToggleKeys. Ok
