Dangerous tweaks


Recommended Posts


If you mean Reg tweaks, try posting the Actual reg entry as this would be more useful than discribing what it does.

This is a good idea wamatt :thumbup as some users tend to search for tweaks and incorpreate them in their unattended xpcd without knowing what they are for (or how dangerous they can be :wacko: )

I have discovered that by using the registry tweak to fix the logitech and microsoft keyboards f-Lock problem if you don't have one of those keyboards the registry fix kills the function keys. I discovered this after installing three laptops. Here is the key that i am talking about...

;Reverses F-Lock key for new Microsoft and Logitech keyboards (Not for use on Laptops)

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]

"Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,19,00,00,00,3b,00,3b,e0,3c,00,08,e0,\

3d,00,07,e0,3e,00,3e,e0,3f,00,3f,e0,40,00,40,e0,41,00,41,e0,42,00,42,e0,43,\

00,43,e0,44,00,23,e0,57,00,57,e0,58,00,58,e0,3b,e0,3b,00,08,e0,3c,00,07,e0,\

3d,00,3e,e0,3e,00,3f,e0,3f,00,40,e0,40,00,41,e0,41,00,42,e0,42,00,43,e0,43,\
