The CAPS LOCK key drives me nuts. I tend to hit it when using the TAB and SHIFT keys ( Big Fingers)
Can the CAPS LOCK key be disabled without jeopardising other keys or creating other issues.
Thanks

Hi Flashfret,

A google search would have yielded you a faster result.

Thanks for the tip.
The procedure for Regedit was easy.
However I cannot find any reference as to how to update the Key map fields (in win 7) as the last step in the process.
Windows and online searches reveal nothing. Is there some vague geekspeak term I should be inputting? as the phrase "updating keymap fields" reveals nothing useful.

Thanks
