First post, by justhal
DosBox consistently crashes when I press the windows logo key when I'm
in fullscreen mode. This is quite annoying. I've messed around with the
configuration file to no avail. I've searched the forums but found no
solution. I've looked into disabling the windows logo key but the solutions
I've found are too cumbersome.
The problem occurs regardless of what game is running, or even if there
is a game running. The problem occurs even from the DosBox prompt.
I've now found a workaround: OpenGL modes. I'm not sure why this is,
but DosBox no longer crashes when I use the OpenGL video mode. I
am going to post this anyway; perhaps it will be helpful to others having
the same problem.
