Receive Notification When The Caps Lock Key Is Active

Many people like having some form of notification when the caps Lock key has been inadvertently activated. Although, there is no way of receiving a visual notification, unless you use a third party application, you can receive an audible notification to alert you.

To configure Windows XP to audibly notify you when you press the Caps Lock key:

  1. Open the Control Panel.
  2. Double-click the Accessibility Options applet.
  3. Click the Keyboard tab.
  4. Click the Use ToggleKeys check box.
  5. Click the General tab.
  6. Verify that the Turn Off Accessibility Features After Idle check box is not selected.
  7. Click OK.
  8. Close the Control Panel.

Now your computer will beep whenever the Caps Lock key (as well as the Num Lock or Scroll Lock) is pressed.
