Covers

[shing]

Got an inquisitive 2 year old who likes to push power buttons.
Anyone know of any small clear hinged covers that could be stuck onto a case...
I know it'll most likely look ugly

I set my mobo to powr on by keyboard and i shut down with windows... Power button is disconnected.. No two year olds here but I always hook it up that way just in case lol.

you could make it look nice with stuff like this. My mind is drawing a blank for search keywords so this is the best I could find.

You could just buy one of those remote starter things for computer and remove the front button or leave it on the bottom of the case.

I would just tape a small plastic container over top of it and deal with the tape residue.

I would spray my little cousin with a spray bottle of water when he would do it to me at his parents house. Trying to watch TV while it gets turned of every 2 minutes is frustrating. He learnt not to do it to me only though and still did it for a long time to his parents.

look for safety switch covers and you can find something nice most likely.

thanks for the ideas, i'll dig around some. spacebar on the keyboard idea would be great if she didn't like to bash the keyboards as well....

I like that. No kids here though.

Look halfway down for the pc covers. Maybe even mod the dvd covers to fit over the part you need.
