<p>Hi there,</p><p>I have recently built a couple of new computers for me and my friend to play EQ2 on. They have almost identical specs, differing only for him having a slightly beefier CPU/GPU. Both run Windows XP SP3.</p><p>We got them up and running, copied over my EQ2 folder to each of them, and started playing. Immediately we note an issue of his keyboard not recognising alt+O to open the options window. We thought it was weird but fiddled around a bit and found the command is still bound to alt+O in options. We tried all other alt commands listed in options as currently bound, and none appear to work. Every bound command containing alt fails to work - trouble with the alt key perhaps! Alt tab out of the program... oh, alt+tab works. Strange. Open up other programs, and all alt functionality is intact - the problem is local to EQ2.</p><p>We reloaded keymapping files, config files, just about anything we could think of. Then we noticed alt+6 through alt+= for his hotbars actually works. This may or may not have worked previous to us reloading files - we admittedly only tried the obvious commands like alt+O, alt+1, alt+2, etc etc.</p><p>So now he's stuck without use of the alt key (well, besides 6 through =) just within EQ2. Any thoughts, suggestions, fixes for this problem?</p><p>EDIT: I guess this is really, really obvious but the issue is not with the keyboard nor its drivers. Just thought I would mention that we have successfully used the keyboard fine on other computers and within other programs, and that a different keyboard yields exact results. Just thought I would get in before the stock-standard "fix your drivers, idiot" response <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" /></p><p>Regards,</p><p>Mandroid</p>
