Dissable Freakin Windows Key
Dissable Freakin Windows Key
I dont know how many times ive been in a game and insted of hitting Alt to slide i hit that freakin windows key and by the time i get my screen back up im scattered all about the mine. Well no more.
Theres a couple ways to do this
1. Manually by editing your keyboard maping. (a real pain if you dont know what your doing)
2. Go here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/216893 and click on \"fix it for me\", follow the little wizard and it will edit the windows registry codes and dissable the windows key on the left and right of the keyboard.
you will need to reset for this to take effect.
3. This is a nifty little program that makes it easy to change the functions of certain keys on your keyboard as well as disable any keys you dont want. (use at your own risk) http://www.randyrants.com/2008/12/sharpkeys_30.html
Just get the zip file and get to changing your setup

If you do this physically for the windows key but you still need to use the function....Skyalmian wrote:If it's a standard keyboard...
Pluck it out?
to open the windows start menu just hit the keyboard shortcut 'CTRL-ESC'

Alt Key to Slide Up?
That seems backwards to me, considering nothing is below the Alt key. This got me thinking... Me and a friend of mine have the exact same config, but another friend is totally different. Post your config!
A = Forward
Z = Reverse
W = Slide Up
S = Slide Down
LShift = Slide Left
X = Slide Right
Q & E = Bank Left & Right
LCtrol = After Burner
Space = Drop Bomb
Alt = Rear View
Middle Mouse Button = Flare
