Vista - Toggle keys beep alert

And if you select "Turn on Toggle Keys" (Vista Ultimate) and the alert still does not work, does anyone have any more information

Hi Dutchy, and welcome to Vista Forums.

I know this is a duh question, but did you click on the Apply or Save button afterwards to apply the setting change?

What type of keyboard do you have? Perhaps someone with the same one may have a suggestion to offer as well.

"I know this is a duh question". Now there's the quote of the week

Brink, I hit apply, went back redid it, hit save then apply, rebooted, removed the setting, reapplied the setting, checked the bios, looked underneath the table (just in case), gave up and had a Zambucca shot instead. The keyboard is a Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Desktop 7000 combo. My laptop is in a port replicator with an additional monitor, but even so, the alert still does not work when I remove the laptop and use only the laptop keyboard.

I even went through the registry, but couldn't find anything (yet) that screams change this setting to make it work.

Strange. I must admit that I do not know why it would not work for you.

You might alsos post this in the General Discussion forum to see what the other members may suggest as a hopeful solution for you.

That was quick, don't you sleep? It's not just me there are three of us here with the same set up, and it won't work on any of the three machines. We all have complete access to the machines, so no security/permissions issues, might have to head back to that Zambucca !

Lets try a different way to look at this, have you tried to change the sound that is played when you hit caps lock?

LOL, sometimes I sleep, not often.

There is no option to change the sound it makes as far as I can see though.

Ok Then, maybe it's something about the Dell Precision's (doubt it though), If I come up with anything I'll post it here.

Ok Dutchy. Please do.

Great, that resolved the issue
