I know of no way to obtain the pause key status under windows. I can
get the scroll lock status, but not the pause key, never did figure that
one out. Windows uses it though, I don't know if it's a standard thing,
or something I have installed, (though if it is an installed program, I
haven't a clue which one). When I hit the pause key, it brings up the
screen snippet dialog.
Since the scroll lock key is readable though, you could use that for a
pause function. Almost nobody uses that key, so interference should be
minimal.

Does anyone know what's up with the Pause key in Windows?
Is there some way to tell if it was pushed?
I have a need for the user to pause execution of my Freepascal program, I
have a pause key.. seems like there should be some way to use it.
