Question about 'Customize Your Keyboard Mapping'

I have a comment about Customize Your Keyboard Mapping:

For Win2K this article does not work at all... in the end I found this Microsoft article which did the trick. Just don't confuse the keyboard layout and keyboard layouts (plural) registry keys. The same article also gives directions for removing/disabling keys you never use.

Thanks! Final piece to a puzzle in XP I've been researching for a while. The MS article gives the key data (pun intended) that an otherwise excellent PC WORLD article (http://www.pcworld.com/howto/article/0,aid,65157,pg,3,00.asp) neglected, namely that the number of Dwords must be specified, and a terminator added at the end of the sequence. I also did a bit of searching on the web to locate the standard scancodes. This can be had by a link in the MS article you specified. Also, another page for scancodes: http://www.barcodeman.com/altek/mule/scandoc.php3 Again, thanks!

Critical point, the PC World article is WRONG and can cause bizarre remapping of your keyboard. For an easy and safe way to remap, your Win2K oir XP keyboard, with a tutorial: See http://www.pitt.edu/~kconover/keithbet.htm
