| 779002 | 2009-06-02 04:27:00 | I have a computer that I am looking at that switches itself on whenever the Ctrl button is pressed on the keyboard. The previous user set it up this way because the main body of the computer is under the desk, have to bend down to switch it on otherwise. The latest user does not want this. o/s is Win2K, where do I find place to change this behaviour back to the usual switch on when power button is pushed. Leaving job now will be back with answer tomorrow if you guys can give it to me. |

| 779005 | 2009-06-02 06:28:00 | Any such option should be in the BIOS somewhere. Just have a look around | Agent_24 (57) | ||
