It's not your english that sucks. Read the readme and tutorials on VOGONS and elsewhere. Buy your games. You won't get any support for pirated games here.

What keyboard do you have?

you may need to enter a keyboard command to establish country pagecode.

For me it's keyb sp at the z:\> prompt or in the autoexec section of the config file.
