[Netshroud]

What's the KEY_ constant for this key?

(Large image, but I couldn't quickly find a decent smaller one)

It's just shift f10

[Netshroud]

Not quite.

For example, on my Vista box, I opened the Start menu, and typed "command prompt".

The key I mentioned in the OP gives me the context menu of the Command Prompt shortcut.

Shift+F10 gives me the context menu of the search text box.

hmm.. are you trying to run command prompt as administrator if the there is a way...

type "CMD" and the press ( Ctrl + Shift + Enter)

and then you will get the prompted with "User Account Control dialog"

to get ride of that in Vista press ( Alt + C) and ( Alt + Y ) for windows 7.

I believe this is what exactly you want to do.

Ctrl+Shift+Enter doesn't work on my box, I don't know why.

I turned off the search service. ;)

Its just a blank list.

I'm running Win7 and Alt+C doesn't auto-accept the UAC. Is the key-combo different for Windows 7?

Also, we should use Ctrl+Esc to bring up the Start menu because it's possible to disable the Windows key completely, but Ctrl+Esc still works.

[Netshroud]

I think in Windows 7 it's ALT+Y. Left Arrow + Enter key should work on both, though.

[H@L0_F00]

Yeah, Alt+Y works, but Left-arrow and Enter should be used.

118 or 0x76

[Netshroud]

The Ubuntu Server installer registers it as 127. Now I'm confused.

[Paul Stoffregen]

There are ways to capture a log of all USB communication. The best (but expensive) is using a protocol analyzer like the Beagle 12 from Total Phase. I have one right here, and if that keyboard were here I could just plug it in, start a capture, and press the key.

I have not personally used any of the software approaches that claim to capture USB packet logs. But they are out there. Maybe you could try using one of those?

[Netshroud]

Nothing mentioned here or via google seems to work: 127, 118, 0xA4 and 135. I've tried it as a normal button, as well as a modifier, but neither work.

[Zimmer]

Could it be a different key based on when position it is at on the keyboard (like on my laptop it is up top by prin scrn but on a standard keyboard it is usually at the bottom in between alt and ctrl)?

[Netshroud]

No, it would send the same keycode.
