Changing Shortcut

I am trying to change a shortcut that is currently assigned to Front Row. The shortcut is Apple Key-Esc. When pressed on a keyboard it opens front row. I'm trying to make that shortcut open a different application, through the use of a service.

However, when I created that service and try to assign that shortcut, it won't save it. It will save a shortcut like Apple-A but not Apple-Esc. I've disabled the Front Row shortcut, thinking maybe Front Row was "holding" that shortcut.

It seems like there must be another location that is blocking me from saving that particular shortcut. Any ideas? Snow Leopard on a Mac Mini.

Where did you disable the shortcut?

You can disable the Front Row shortcut in the same screen from which you add custom shortcuts.

Try changing it in that screen to something else, then disable it.
