Sticky keys in Rally Championship 2000 makes the game unplayable No problems with Unreal Tournament, Quake3 or Descent Freespace 2. MS serial mouse + Keytronic PS/2 keyboard. - Igor -

There has been lots of talk about the "sticky keys" problem with some games on W2k... has Microsoft (or anyone else) provided any solution? Some problems appear to be PS/2 mouse related but that doesn't seem to be the case with Rally Championship 2000. I get "sticky keys" in this game while "driving" with keyboard only (and I have a serial mouse). MS released a "compatibility update" for W2k but it didn't fix this particular problem. The latest patch for RC2000 didn't fix it either. Any ideas? - Igor -

Cool. I'll have to buy more RAM and a faster CPU to get the OS realise that I have released a key... no thanks. BTW, while playing RC2000 I had no other apps running and I thought that Celeron 366@567MHz + 128Mb would have been enough for W2k... - Igor -

Quote: Originally posted by YuppieScum: By default, the control and shift keys become "sticky" if pressed repeatedly 5 times. I know about the accessability options and I have disabled them. Besides I don't use CTRL and shift keys in RC2000. Quote: Originally posted by APV_SAV: try setting optimize performance to background services in control panel/system/advance it may help. Thanks, I'll try that. I'm not having any "stickiness" in Quake3 or UT (kb + mouse), but as I said before I have a serial mouse and most of these problems appear with PS/2 mouse and keyboard (and are fixed by moving the mouse to serial port). - Igor -

I'm getting 'sticking keys' problems with Rally Championship 2000. I use keyboard for 'driving'. No problems with UT or Descent FreeSpace 2 (using kb + mouse). Build 2195 + MS Serial Mouse + TNT + 3.66 drivers. ------------------ - Igor -
