    Here you go. Screenshot of the relevant page is attached. I believe it's a caps lock indicator.

    Is the machine working correctly? If not, flashing caps lock on this model may suggest a memory problem. Reseating the memory might be enough to stop it. When booting and you see the Dell BIOS splash screen press F12 and run the diagnostic to see if anything fails.

    Google " latitude d630 flashing caps lock" for more info.
