Vista x64 - locking up
« on: February 24, 2010, 01:40:42 PM »
I've searched the forums and not seeing anything similar to my issue.

I've downloaded the demo and testing it.  While trying to setup a tourney, I can move around but at times when I try to enter data, nothing is happening.  If I close out and restart, sometimes it works again and then sometimes I have the same issue of not being able to enter data.

Is this a Vista issue?  I know, may be a dumb question since it's Vista.  =)

What exactly are you trying to type in and where are you trying to enter it in?

Any field while trying to setup a game.  Prizes, chips, etc.  Sometimes, it'll let me type values but then sometimes it doesn't and the only keys that seem to work is backspace to clear the field but then I cannot enter an actual value.

Never heard of this before.  Do no other keys work at all?  I mean, it's not a case of trying to enter numeric values on the keypad with the numlock off, is it?  :)  We've all done it.

Think I found the problem.  While I was looking at the Control Keys tab I saw that you could lock and unlock a window.  When I couldn't enter data on a popup window (i.e. chipsets) I did Ctrl+L to unlock and then I was able to enter the data values.  When I moved to the prizes tab, same thing happened and the Ctrl+L worked.

Hopefully this is all it was.

I've personally had no issues using the lock feature - not sure if it's cause i'm win7, but having the lock seemed to have not affected my program at all.

Very odd, especially considering the "Lock" refers to locking the Game window on the current screen (preventing screen rotation from occurring).
