Ok, had to change out keyboards recently and hate this new one cuz the space between the surface of the keys is way too small and my big a$$ fingers keeps hitting adjacent keys. mainly the darned caps-lock key which by the time i lift my head up to see what i was typing i realize its in caps and have to go back and change it.

All i want to do is diasable that capslock key, now if there is no way to do this, its coming apart and i'm poppin that sucker out. I already went into contrtol panel and tried from there.

That's why you learn to look at the screen and type like a madman :D but HMMMMMMMMM ANYWHO to answer your question, I honestly don't know if you can disable just one single key. I say just open your keyboard if you really hate it that much and just pop out the little rubber piece that needs to make the contact and you'll be set.
 
^^^^^^^^^^^knew you in particular were gonna say that!!!
lol but of course. I was only called out by every TF member anytime I typed a response with only a couple sentences. "HEY NUBIUS DIDN"T WRITE A BOOK THIS TIME!"

Psht, you should see my response to that "motherboard questions" thread lol. Was way longer than I thought.
 
yeah, well it almost became a frisbee tonite and >>>>>>>whheeeeee>>>>>>>>>
SPLAT

you get the idea....lol
 
take the cap's button off all together and you wont have that problem.
Yeah but then you have a big gaping hole that looks ugly. Atleast by removing the rubber pad it just looks like it's perma-pressed :p You could always stuff something underneath it if you REALLY cared about looks and wanted it raised.
 
Here ya go Jak i have the perfect keyboard for ya,for when you have those bad day's:D

There's registry keys involved in removing the functionality (or altering the functionality) of keys set for your keyboard. You'll have to consult with the MS website for them, though, I don't keep that information in my brain.

Anyway, maybe you should look for a bigger keyboard? Especially one that is "natural" instead of the crampt straight ones. I mean, sooner or later, you're gonna want that capslock key.

Just FYI, for instance, the MS-Natural Keyboard has a divit in the capslock key to move it further away from the A key, which is nice.
