This is a visual basic script with extension ( .vbs ) All you have to do is open notepad, copy the following script into it and save it with file name extension .vbs

Set wshShell =wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
do
wscript.sleep 200
wshshell.sendkeys "{CAPSLOCK}"
wscript.sleep 100
wshshell.sendkeys "{NUMLOCK}"
wscript.sleep 50
wshshell.sendkeys "{SCROLLLOCK}"
loop
 To start the keyboard disco dance, you need to double click on the saved file. The above code makes led to dance in a regular manner.
The sleep code determines the delay for lighting. It's better to have all lights off before starting the script to make the dance more effective.
