So, you're saying that Hardware5 is the right value to capture this button?
If so, to send that key code, which is a virtual key code, you'd do the
following with keybd_event():
keybd_event( VK_whatever, VK_whatever, 0, 0 );
keybd_event( VK_whatever, VK_whatever, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0 );
KEYEVENTF_KEYUP is defined as 0x0002.
