How do I turn on/off the Num/Caps/Scroll Lock keyboard indication lights?

You have to poke some special holes in kernel mode...

You''re gonna wanna take a good look at your keyboard. On it, you should see some keys called Caps Lock, Scroll Lock, and Num Lock. Push them and then release. It''s like magic how those lights go on and off.

I''m just kiddin with ya...I know whatya mean.

Dodge this.

i know, how this worked in DOS... does this also work in Windows ?? don''t think so... (unless it''s a DOS-program in a DOS-box !)
if i remember right, there had to be a value set in the BIOS-variable space of the RAM. after that the keyboard-interrupt had to be called for update.
i''d like to see this be done in windows...
i''m relative new to windows-programming, so maybe there''s an easy way i couldn''t figure out, yet... plz tell me, if so !
