Can I lock my keyboard?

Hi - can anyone tell me if it is possible to lock your keyboard? ie, to prevent a child doing any damage whilst watching a dvd !!!

I don't think so - unless you disable it in the BIOS at startup.

Easier to disable the children!!!

There are some third-party applications for XP like: -

Chris PC Lock 2.3 -

This costs $20 but there may be some freeware if you Google. I would check carefully though - I think most of these applications will throw up a dialogue box if a key is hit.

:wink:

It would be handy for me too. One of our cats managed to open the mobility centre in Vista, turn off the wireless and also take a screenshot at the same time!
