I have been looking at the cause of this in my Windows XP months before I installed my own Vista. Thank you for this thread. |

I understand now that the page I mentioned is just Bluetooth which I don't have. |

That route would be safer for you than editing the registry which was your first plan of action. Maybe somebody else will offer better idea. Good luck. |

You should quote the relevant text so everybody knows what you are talking about. You probably don't realise that the 'forum' you are posting to is not the actual newsgroup that I, and many others, are posting to. |

| Re: Caps lock display - how to turn off? Go to C:\windows The pesky little bugger's name is CNYHKey.exe I just renamed mine to CNYHkey_DISABLE.exe and rebooted. Problem solved... No ill effects so far.
