Disable Keyboard and Mouse

I am college student currently taking a labview class and struggling to finish my final project.  I am trying to write a VI that when run will disable the keyboard and mouse and while playing a sound.  Its the part about disabling the keyboard and mouse that's giving me problems.  I'm not quite experienced enough with labview to be able to figure this out.  I am using Labview 2010 on a Linux based system and writing the VI to work on a windows 7 system.  I found some registry keys that will supposedly do what I am looking for but I'm not sure how to use labview to write them.  I also found a couple windows programs that will work great to do what I want.  But then I have to worry about silently installing and running a program from labview (over my head as well).  I was hoping someone might be able to provide some insight.  Thanks in advance.

Hello,

 

when you know the registry keys, have a look at the

 

Windows Registry Access VIs

https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/labview-api-ref/page/menus/categories/computer/plat-registry-mn...

 

You can easily open and write the keys.

 

Best regards,

NWO
