-> ok, i've tried this a few HUNDERED different ways in C/C++, but to no 
avail.
-> I'm trying to make the caps,num,scroll lock lights flash. could someone 
post
-> some code that does this, because i'm having one heck of a time with it.
How about this:
        MOV     AX, 0040h       ; please note this is a REAL MODE segment,
        MOV     ES, AX          ; not a protected mode selector.
        MOV     BX, 0017h
; to activate caps lock (& light)
        MOV     AL, 01000000b
; to activate num lock (& light)
        MOV     AL, 00100000b
; to activate scroll lock (& light)
        MOV     AL, 00010000b
;then, once you know which ones to activate:
        OR      ES:[BX], AL
