Drive Activity Indicator

Indicates that the Notebook PC is accessing one or more storage device(s) such as the hard
disk. The light flashes proportional to the access time.

Number Lock Indicator

Indicates that number lock [Num Lk] is activated when lighted. Number lock allows some
of the keyboard letters to act as numbers for easier numeric data input.

Capital Lock Indicator

Indicates that capital lock [Caps Lock] is activated when lighted. Capital lock allows some
of the keyboard letters to type using capitalized letters (e.g. A, B, C). When the capital
lock light is OFF, the typed letters will be in the lower case form (e.g. a,b,c).

a part of the keyboard is required, such as for playing games.
