Hello,

I am having a problem with DOSBox because my CTRL keys are useless in the porgram. this means I can't take screenshots and speed up or slow down the program. How is it possible for me to fix this?

Thanks.

Do you have a keyboard layout other than U.S.? If you, you may need to remap some keys, although I never heard of the Ctrl key being messed up. Check for a file called mapper.txt in the DOSBox directory. If it's there, remove it to restore the standard key mapping.

Do you have a "F Lock" key on your keyboard? On mine (it's not in front of me right now), IIRC it's above the ESC key. By default I am unable to use the F1-F12 keys as the original functions. I have to press this F lock key to use those F1-F12 keys as F1-F12 keys.
