Re: keyboard "winows" key disabling

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



If you are using any WinXP OS, there is already one built in.

See here for information

The info that you need is the scan code entries, and the scan code mapper
link.

hello,

The "Windows" key on the left of Alt key on the keyboard (azerty) is
annoying to me!!!
each time I play a game I push it instead of pushing the Alt key and that
makes the game going reduced to the task bar and opens the "Start"
menu!!!
so I want to disable that key, I would like to know how to do!

thx

I suggest finding online a free keyboard mapping program and map the
Windows key to Alt.

Or maybe there's already one in Windows Media Center Edition - you do have
MCE, right? Because that's the newsgroup you posted in...
