When I run any graphical DOS game under Windows XP SP1, keystrokes don't
get sent to the game. Reserved key combinations like Alt+Enter and Alt+Tab
do work, but regular keys aren't recognised.
Text mode DOS applications receive keystrokes, and any DOS game that can
be run in a window does as well. I've tried setting specific games to
'Compatibility mode for Windows 95', and I've tried a different keyboard
(different brand that my current one, but also non-USB).
I've tried booting from a FreeDOS disk, and all the games I've tried do
work correctly. DOSBox doesn't seem to be able to load any of them,
however.
If anyone knows of a specific setting in Windows that would be the cause
of this, I'd appreciate your help.
