You can solve the problem by cutting a large opening in a basement wall and adding a window that meets code requirements for egress. You'll find contractors willing to do this work, often for between $2,000 and $3,000, or you might consider doing it yourself.
Caps Lock is a button on a computer keyboard that, when pressed, causes all letters to be generated in capitals until deactivated. It is located in the position of a similar Shift lock key (and sometimes a Ctrl key) found in some other keyboard layouts. It is usually a toggle key: each press reverses its action.
COLGeek said: Found this on a HP netbook, so I am hoping it is similar to your Asus: As far as know with HP machines there should be a lock key near the LCD screen. To disable the keyboard lock, hit the key and simply enter the User Password to unlock it. The only other way i know is to power the laptop off, remove the power cord and the battery, then put the battery back in and power the laptop up again, that usually brings the keyboard back to life.
