Cap Lock/Num Lock

My cap lock/num lock icons have disappeared from the notification area/sys
tray but they are 'enabled' in the options and set to display always; but
they dont.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks

Visintini

I would actually LIKE to remove the scroll lock, num lock, and cap lock icons
from my system tray. Any idea how to do that?

If you're using something other than a plain jane keyboard, look in the
keyboard properties in Control Panel.

Can you figure out what program is running them? This isn't a Windows function. Try right-clicking the icons.
Does that offer any Options, or the ability to Exit?

I am using the OEM HP keyboard, and there isn't anything in keyboard
properties for removing those icons.

No, icons don't respond to any clicks. I have no idea what program is feeding
them.

The answer is NO and YES. No it is not a lap top and yes I did upgrade from
XP but thanks anyway, I un-instaled and re-installed the keyboard software
and this fixed it!
