    Hi guys, I'm new to the forum and new to Samsung laptops too (previously owned a Macbook) anyway I like it but there is one annoying thing about it and that's the little popup that you get when you hit the caps lock key or the num lock key, it's obviously there to tell you that you have it on because there is no physical light to tell you so, it's just that it pops up rite in the middle of the screen and obstructs what you're doing :-/ anyone know any way to either change the icon or make it smaller or just anything really?

    How long is your notification showing on screen? My notification only lasts for about 3 seconds so it isn't very intrusive. Any shorter and I probably wouldn't notice it.

    Oh it's only for a second or two and I may just be being picky, it's just it's quite large and colourful and just rite in your face, maybe I'm just not used to it having owned my Macbook for 5 years and not having to see an icon popupe every time I hit caps lock lol
