Hi,

I spent a lot more time than i origionaly intended macking my keyb oard hack. The end result was two joysticks with 6 buttons each a player 1 player 2 and coin button.

I used a compaq keyboard (chicony chip), and was unfortunately forced to use the special windows 95 and appmenu keys for the player 1 and player 2 buttons.

This worked fine with mame32 and Windows 2000 / ME because mame stopped windows for acting on these key presses.

Enter Mame32 and WIndows XP. All of a sudden if I press one of these buttons I get thrown back to Windows.

Question: Does anybody know how to make Windows XP ignore these special keys.
