problems with keyboard in old adventure games

guest · Post by **guest** » Sun Feb 20, 2005 9:38 am

You know, those old type sierra adventure games, where you had to write you actions, instead of only cliking? Well, my bloody keyboard just won't work in em'! Half of it doesn't respond, while the a few other buttons give off just some strange symbols...

*kinda like, the end of the world is near or something...*

and ideas...?

thanks

Is your keyboard PS/2 or USB?

Try this:

1) Press Alt+shift

2) Question: Is ur windows a different langauge OS?

Can u type in any other language?
