Caps Lock Indicator
I've just gotten a new computer with home premume vista 64 but i'm still using my old 'microsoft' wireless keyboard and mouse. Unlike the XP profesional, there is no 'caps lock' indication any where. Any suggestions? Thank you, Bara -- bara Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com

Caps Lock Indicator
The caps lock indicator is a function of the keyboard - not the operating
system. The O/S just supports what is physically there. -- Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience "bara" wrote in message ...

Since you don't provide the make and model number of your new computer it is
hard to say where the Caps Loc indicator is. "bara" wrote in message ... I've just gotten a new computer with home premume vista 64 but i'm still using my old 'microsoft' wireless keyboard and mouse.

That was due to software you installed for the keyboard or was supplied by
the computer manufacturer. It was NOT part of the operating system. -- Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience "bara" wrote in message ...

Caps Lock Indicator
Again, the manufacturers drivers determine what functions are available, not
the operating system. If the keyboard is manufacture red by Dell you get the functions that their keyboard drivers is designed to give you. -- Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience "bara" wrote in message ... bara;1263793 Wrote: On my XP whenever I switched the caps lock on or off there was a note on the right bottom corner.

Caps Lock Indicator
Install the proper software for the keyboard, XP was not what was giving you
the caps lock notification, it was Microsoft's keyboard software, which was installed on XP. You need to install it in your Vista installation. -- Crosspost, do not multipost http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 "bara" wrote in message ... bara;1263793 Wrote: On my XP whenever I switched the caps lock on or off there was a note on the right bottom corner.
