Has anybody else noticed Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock??? - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

**drugimpotence** · 04-06-2009, 07:08 AM

At work today i noticed on my XP machine that now when i hit CAPS LOCK or scroll or num lock a small button appears in the lower right corner indicating if it is on or off... I thought that was odd because it has never done that before.

Now i'm home on my Win 7 RC1 machine and i just noticed it is now doing the same thing lol. It's not a problem, it's just odd that it is doing it now.

My thought was maybe a windows update?

Nope dont see it on mine..

**pharmablogger** · 04-06-2009, 07:12 AM

Must be some keyboard drivers you've installed.

Nothing has changed on either machine tho...

**Gofthooxdix** · 04-06-2009, 07:51 AM

I've got it too on Windows 7 RC1, but I've got IntelliType Pro 6.1 installed..

**JessePex** · 04-06-2009, 08:10 AM

never seen it before..and its not there on my laptop

**encumeterz** · 04-06-2009, 08:25 AM

any Printscreen mate?

**drugimpotence** · 04-06-2009, 08:59 AM

Yep! lol, saved it as a GIF on accident. bottom right corner you see it.

**EnubreBense** · 04-06-2009, 12:49 PM

I see that on my HP laptop as well. But not on my desktop.

I believe it's part of a driver somewhere.

Ya me too, that would be very disturbing somehow..

**avavavava** · 04-06-2009, 01:20 PM

I get big, green letters across the bottom of my screen when I hit one of them. Seems to be a Logitech feature. It's only there for a moment, though, so it doesn't bother me.

**JessePex** · 04-06-2009, 06:01 PM

oo that.. thats so

**Oriesssedleli419** · 04-06-2009, 06:17 PM

I get that on my HP EliteBook too. And all my other previous HP's as well.

**drugimpotence** · 04-06-2009, 10:11 PM

its a hand built machine with a saitek keyboard lol. no such things as HP on this machine

No big deal, just odd i suppose

**Foucceedo** · 04-06-2009, 11:00 PM

can you not set this in accesability features in the control panel ?

**mygalinasoo** · 04-07-2009, 05:40 AM

Seems like a useless feature to me. There are little lights on the keyboard that tell you when scroll lock, caps lock and num lock are on.

**amusaasyday** · 05-06-2009, 08:17 AM

I've got it too on Windows 7 RC1, but I've got IntelliType Pro 6.1 installed..

I have that some program. Pretty nifty program to have. For me, I have to have it as I have a wireless keyboard that does not have any LEDs to show what is on or off.
