ri-rilot 0 Posted October 10, 2001 Hi Guys. Odd one this. When I run some old DOS apps such as Duke 3D or Stargunner the app refuses to accept any keyboard inputs. Eg, when running the Duke 3D installer it says press enter to install esc to exit. Neither works as no inputs from the keyboard are recognised. Any ideas? Share this post Link to post
JP- 0 Posted October 10, 2001 OK this is a huge long shot but are you using a usb keyboard? Share this post Link to post

Admiral LSD 0 Posted October 18, 2001 Try disabling any software running in the systray that pertains to the keyboard or mouse. I have Duke Nukem 3D and apart from being unable to use any res above 320x240 (which makes reading those hints they pop into really dark areas of maps extremely difficult to read) it works fine.

ri-rilot 0 Posted October 19, 2001 I re-installed XP yesterday because I screwed it up with some old ASPI drivers. Since the re-install DOS apps have worked fine. I guess it was some crappy input software like you said. Thanks for the help. Share this post Link to post
