I have a Acer Aspire 7750G-9411 laptop. I recently had to reload my operating system. since then the "on-screen " icon for the cap's lock and number's lock does not show up. I made sure to download and install all of the drivers but have been able to restore this one frature. Thanks for any help you can give me.

    If you are using Windows 8, then it is important to note that the on-screen indicators for Num Lock and Caps Lock are not available in Windows 8. To know more about this, you can refer to the link below:

    2. Type keyboard in the "Search" field.
    3. Double-click "Keyboard options".
    4. Go to "Key settings" tab and then, go to "Key settings" list.
    5. Locate and double-click "Caps Lock" and select the option "Display Caps Lock status on screen". Click "Finish".
    6. Follow Step 5 for Nums Lock as well.

     

    Hope this will resolve your issue.
