I used to always use the top numbers, but once I started using the number pad, it made life much easier. Especially when entering a password thats all numbers.

Sometimes I just remember the order of which to type my pw on the numpad so well, that when i'm on a laptop or something, I can't remember what the password was. :P
 
I didn't read the entire post, so i'll probably nominate thigns that ppl have mentioned already...anyways here it goes.

1) scroll lock
2) Home
3) The right click key, one next to the windows and ctrl key

i agree with 1 and 3 but 2.. no, the HOME key i use a lot, when your coding and you finish a massive line of code, some programs dont have scroll bars along the bottom, so you hit HOME and it gets to the beginning of the code line. Pretty handy

i hate the zoom keys on my keyboard because they do not work, but for the conventional keys, i would have to say that i dislike the home key.
 
I hate the enter key. I never even use it. Joking


I really see no use for the windows key.


yea I'm now a Silver member. hooray
 
Come to think about it, although I have no idea what the key is called, I never use the key located to the left of the number 1 key and above tab. That ones rendered quite useless with me.
 
That's the begin quote/tilde key. The only time I used that was in multiplayer CS and HL (the original) to bring up the menu to enter cheats while playing...

You must not game at all that is to bring up the conosole in most of the Steam games and i belive farcry.

The most useless keys i think are the windows key i always seem to bump that button when i am gaming thankfully my logitech G15 comes with a key that disables it:) .

And another one would be the thing that is next to the right windows key(forgot what its called). and some other ones would be the pause break key and the caps lock i am always bumping that when i am typing and if i want to capitalize a word ill just use the shift key.
 
what has alt gr ever done?
and what is that symbol with a mouse on a window key thats like next to the ctrl and window key???

why am i so bored that i talk about this?
 
The Pause/Break key. I don't think I've EVER used that key. I don't even know what it does...someone tell me please :D

I use every key all the time, except for the insert

insert i use on the school computers, because when you type and when you go back to fix something it types over the word, so you press insert to put a letter in between the others. never use it at home

It will pause the screen in certain apps; the only time that I have ever seen it work is in the POST screen.
 
I've actually had a game or two that used that key to pause the game. They probably figured that you wouldn't hit it too easily, so it made a good option for that feature...

Huh, I didn't know that. Well I have typeover disabled, so it wouldn't be of any use to me anyway :rolleyes:
