Re: [DQSD-Users] Crazy windows
Oddly it works now since my machine cratered and I had to install the OS from scratch... Somewhere along the way - in the OS updates etc. the function was broken... My machine is setup the same way now that it was before the crash.. I am running the same apps etc.. Monty FWIW, few would consider reinstalling the OS a solution to this problem, it seems you had an unrelated reason for doing so. Also, what you've described isn't really the problem we're experiencing. Evoking Win-S is causing keyboard problems requiring a reboot in most cases. It's not just one or two errant 'keystrokes', but a flash of 10 to 30 OS-evoked key commands causing window closures, taskbar property changes and other desktop casualties (most may not think to check their trash folders afterwards). Hopefully these Win98-specific problems can be fixed. IANAP, but it seems the gran mal starts in the keyboard hook. The OS must be getting these key commands from somewhere, and I'm curious to know where the data is coming from for these 'keystrokes'. --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ DQSD-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dqsd-users http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=8601

RE: [DQSD-Users] Crazy windows
FWIW - I was never been able to get the win-s thing to work.. I never really bothered me because I never use it..and I thought I must be mis-understanding what was supposed to happen.. One day I tried to get it working and couldn't... Oddly it works now since my machine cratered and I had to install the OS from scratch... Somewhere along the way - in the OS updates etc. the function was broken... My machine is setup the same way now that it was before the crash.. I am running the same apps etc..
