Make the Caps Lock Key Beep to Alert You When Accidentally Hit

In Vista & Windows 71. To make the Caps Lock key beep and alert you if it’s accidentally hit in Vista or Windows 7, click on Start >> Control Panel.

2. In Control Panel , click Ease of Access Center.

3. When the Make your computer easier to use screen comes up, you might be surprised when the computer starts talking to you. If you want to turn that off, uncheck Always read this section aloud.
Then under the Explore all settings list click Make the keyboard easier to use.

4. Then in the next screen scroll down and check Turn on Toggle Keys – hear a tone when you press CAPS LOCK, NUM LOCK, or SCROLL LOCK. Then click OK and close out of Control Panel.

In Windows XP

1. The process is essentially the same in XP but things are named and laid out differently. Click on Start >> Control Panel.

2. When Control Panel opens make sure you’re in Classic View and click on Accessibility Options.

3. In the Accessibility Options window, make sure you’re under the Keyboard tab, then check Use ToggleKeys. Click OK then close out of Control Panel.

That’s it! Now any time you hit the Caps Lock key you will hear it beep. This trick can be very helpful when you’re busy and accidentally hit Caps Lock.
