Hi

What kind of sound would like emitted?

Start, control panel, accessibility options. Set as you like.

Don't have that accessibility control panel item ! How can I get it back ?

Yes. Go to Control Panel | Accessibility Options. On the Keyboard
tab, check "Use Toggle Keys."

I too have a problem with accidentally hitting it and not
realizing it. Another choice that I personally prefer is to
download and use the free SmartCaps at http://www.phoebusnet.com/

Thanks !

You're welcome. Thanks for letting me know it's no longer free.

There's an old freeware program called Anticapslock that works on XP.
Good luck finding it, though. (The downloaded file is\was caps.zip.)
Perhaps someone at alt.comp.freeware knows where it can be obtained,
or a different program to help with capslock oopsies.

There's a program by that name, but it's shareware and costs $10 to register.

Don't need to look for anticapslock - I brought it in from my old
computer. In the original version, I believe the only difference
between registered and unregistered was that registration would remove
the systray icon.
