  1. Want complete instructions for changing keyboard calculator program


    So I want to invoke a different program than calc when the keyboard "Calculator" key is pressed. There are somewhat vague points made elsewhere about editing the registry. As in
    Edit this registry key:

    HKLM/software/microsoft/windows/currentversion/explorer/appkey/18/ShellExecute

    If it does not exist, create a String Value with name ShellExecute and as value the path to your program.

    and

    On Windows 10 HKLM/software/microsoft/windows/currentversion/explorer/appkey/18 is empty. Edit: ShellExecute is a String Value that you have to make, and it's value should be the full path. These instructions are (to me) not clear. Do I create a key? Or a string value? Can someone clarify? Do I right click on
    HKLM/software/microsoft/windows/currentversion/explorer/appkey/18/
    and create a key called shellexecute?

    Thanks.

    :)

  2. Instructions to change board?

    Boot off of the windows CD, repair your XP partition (hopefully you won't have to reinstall windows), install drivers, and you're good to go. You'll see dual channel mode in the BIOS splash screen results from POST. It'll be pretty obvious *Stick Out Tongue Want complete instructions for changing keyboard calculator program :p. Here's a list of general tweaks for the 939Dual-SATA2.
    Step one- Set time, date
    Step two- In CPU settings, disable cool n quiet, set memory clock to DDR400, play with memory timings (CAS-TRAS-TRP-TRCD), which are listed in the bios in the order CAS, TRCD, TRAS, and TRP. EDIT- new BIOS's mess around with this order, can't be too sure on it, but yeah at least you know what the RAM timings stand for *Big Grin Want complete instructions for changing keyboard calculator program :D.
    Leave MA timing at 2T unless you think your system can handle 1T
    Step three- in Chipset settings, enable onboard LAN, disable onboard Audio, disable AGP fast write, set primary graphics adapter, and set CPU-NB and NB-SB link speed to 1000mhz.
    Step four- in IDE, disable controllers you aren't using. On all drives detected, enable SMART if you can and set PIO/DMA as high as they will go.
    Step five- Enable legacy USB support
    Step six- Set password if you're worried about anyone screwing around with your BIOS settings
    Step seven- Configure your boot sequence. I reccomend hard drive first, optical drive second, and floppy drive third.
    Step eight- Save changes, boot into XP, and enjoy your computer.

  3. Changing Calculator Key on Sculpt Keyboard

    1. Yes I am referring to a third party application.

    2. With the Comfort 5000, I was able to change the functionality of various shortcut buttons on the keyboard. To change the calculator app, all I had to do was go to the Mouse and Keyboard Center, go to basic settings, scroll down to calculator and then
    browse to select the app I wanted it to open. I tried to do these steps with the Scuplt, but I don't see where it's anything that plain and simple.

    Thank you for any help you can offer.
