I've been having problems with my keyboard.  When I enter Turbo C or
Wordperfect (dos), the arrow keys set it into Caps Lock mode, that is
the letters become capitals.  The Caps Lock light does not light, however.
To get back into lowercase, I have to hit the shift key.  This happens with
any keyboard, so you can eliminate a faulty keyboard.  Any help would be
appreciated.

On a completely different note, I just set my memory to 0 wait state, rather
than 1 wait state, in the CMOS setup.  My 386sx16 now landmarks 5.6 points
higher and norton SIs 3 points higher.  What's going on?  Is this a good idea
to do?  Again, thanks.

                                           Paul
