Everytime I load or modify a profile using Speedkeys, as I quit the program my cursor freezes and the keyboard locks-up, forcing me to reboot. I've done the recommended surgery on the throttle (per CH Products instructions), even bought a new non-programmable keyboard, and still I'm getting the lockups. I'm running a Gateway Pentium III 550 with 256MB memory, TNT2 and Voodoo II, PCI Live Value sound card. I have the Combatstick, Pro-throttle and Pro pedals. One of the faq's at CH mentioned adjusting the keyboard speed in the BIOS, but that's not an available option with my BIOS. Anyone have any suggestions on how to remedy this situation?

Doogie,

Strange indeed. CH products give vert few problems and you will see very few posts on this stick combo.

Are you using the normal windows mouse pointer?

Doogie,

as you quit Speedkeys, be very careful not to move the mouse cursor for a few seconds, otherwise it'll lock up.

Doogie

I have the same combo as you.

Combat-stick and Pro throttle. Haven't been able to get it yet! Any help would be appreciated.

If you are not running version 1.31 of speedkeys, try it. I remember one (later)version that would cause some conflicts in my computer. AFAI Remember, it was a version later than 1.31. The version # I'm talking about is found Right-Clicking on the speedkeys.exe file and selecting properites.
