Disable or Remove Caps Lock Key

Any way to remove or disable Caps Lock key on Gateway 7320 laptop? never ever intentionally use it but always hitting it with ring finger, typing a line of two of capitals then having to retype. I covered up the touch pad with plastic but haven't succeeded with Caps Lock key.

 

"typing a line of two of capitals then having to retype"

You really need to watch when your typing, and this doesn't happen.
You need the Caps key, when writing a letter.

Plan B(?): Stick a toothpick|Popsicle stick (or similar) under the edge of the [CapsLock] key.

 

Starbuck: I agree. Meanwhile I tried the beep in the XP laptop and got it to beep. Plan to try the toothpick also. Problem is not clumsy but that the ring finger points down at a 45 degree angle and often hits the Caps key inadvertently. While I do look up at the text it is off and on and not steady looking. If I forget to look up, when I do I find a line or so of CAPS. The beep might help, and so might the toothpick.

 

I knew there was a Registry hack, but wouldn't suggest that for obvious reasons.
Caps Lock Beep looks the way to go,as you suggested, Pete.
