I just installed dosbox 0.72 on a Toshiba laptop with Vista. Dosbox runs at 3000 CPU cycles with no frameskip as a default. However, there is an interesting problem. It doesn't recognize the = sign. That's an annoyance if I want to change settings. I got around the backslash problem and found the colon works with the left shift key (but not the right). But how do I find a way for dosbox to recognize the equal sign? I tried ctrl-f1 but the instructions in the wiki file don't seem to work.

Yes, the equal sign works in Windows.

What language layout do you use under your OS?

If you're using a non-English keyboard layout in Windows, it will be different in Dosbox.

I have to use the \ key as = in Dosbox.. the key just left of the backspace key.
