I hate the fact that my insert key doubles as print screen, and a toggle key is needed to switch them.<br />

I just looked in the Keyboard option on my Control Panel, and I don't see a way to disable one key.&nbsp; But I'm not well versed on comp tricks, so keep hope alive.

That is a good point Wadd makes.&nbsp; If it's that bad, go to Comp USA or Best Buy, look at their keyboards and get the one with the insert key as far away from the backspace as you can.

I mean, its not hard to just pop that key off if you really need to either.&nbsp; Just take a real door key and stick it down there and pry up, fucking thingll pop off in no time

Glue a thumbtack to that key. You'll never accidentally press it ever again.&nbsp; Well...maybe once.

I do the same think all the time! I never thought about prying it off, that's sounds like a plan...

I'm not a big fan of the Pause/Break key... it just sits there, mocking me with it's worthlessness.&nbsp; Fucking 1985 programmers key.

<p>The Pause/Break key never gets in my way, but I wish that the fucking Caps Lock was located near that key, because I hit that by mistake almost as often as the Insert key.</p><p>At work, I have occasionally started using the keyboards number pad instead of the phones keypad before I realise my mistake!</p>
