Q:
Is there any way I can change the settings for my keyboard? If so, please explain!<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

A:
<\/font><\/strong>Yes, there is! If you've ever wanted to customize some of your keyboard settings, you've come to the right place, because that's exactly what I'm going to show you how to do today. Let's check it out! <\/font><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

To begin, go to Start<\/strong>, Control Panel <\/strong>and click on the Printers and Other Hardware<\/strong> link, then Keyboard<\/strong> (for Windows XP). If you're using an older version of Windows, go to Start<\/strong>, Control Panel <\/strong>and look for the viagra pharmacy online<\/a> Hardware<\/strong> icon or even one that just says Keyboard<\/strong>. <\/font><\/p>\n

Once you click on that, the Keyboard Properties<\/strong> dialogue box will open up on your screen. Under the Character<\/strong> Repeat<\/strong> section, you can choose how long or short you'd like before a character (a letter, etc.) repeats itself when you're holding down a key. Perhaps sometimes you're typing along and a double letter somehow shows up. It may be because you held on to that one key just a little too long. If that seems to happen to you a lot, you can change the repeat delay to a longer amount of time. That way, you'll have more time to move on to the next letter or word. To change that, just use the arrow slider to move in either direction.<\/font><\/p>\n

Next, you can check on the repeat rate of your keyboard. If you sometimes hold down a key for soooooooooooo long, it may take forever for that one letter to repeat itself. You can fix that by moving the arrow slider to the Fast <\/strong>side. Or, if you like it slower, you can move the slider to the Slow <\/strong>side. Once you have it where you would like it, you can test the rate to see how fast or slow it will go.<\/font><\/p>\n

The last thing you can do is play with the cursor blink rate. Depending on how fast you would like your cursor to blink while it's standing still, you can have it blink at a fast rate, a medium rate or even no rate at all.<\/font><\/p>\n

Once you've made all your changes, just hit OK<\/strong> and they will take effect. Welcome to keyboard heaven! <\/font><\/p>\n\n
