    i am not a programmer, \i'm afraid. \i just need to disable the slash/bar key next to the shift up key - as you can see \I keep hitting the slash/bar key when \i am trying to capitalize a letter. \i would just like to disable the damn thing!

    \\tried downloading a little app called \keytweak but the layout is not the same as my acer aspire one netbook.

    any ideas\|?

    \thanks a lot.....\siona

    Here's the codes for the keys http://www.usnetizen.com/fix_capslock.php
    so the backslash code is 2B 00 and the enter key is 1C 00 the F12 key is 58 00 so I can see in the video how the right black slash key is replaced by the F12 key.

    I don't know enough to tell you what to remove if you don't have a left backslash key on your netbook keyboard.
