acer keyboard might be wired with hp?
There is a file called "README.txt" included with DOSBox. It's also linked to from the Start menu. It has a section called FAQ for Frequently Asked Questions. One of those questions is literally "Q: I can't type \ or : in DOSBox."
That might be a good place to look for a solution.

ah thanks i didnt actuly see it
right none of them seemed to work n some of them i didnt know how to do due to code editing.. but the ALT-92 and ALT-52 im trying but not sure if u do
c/ALT-92 or c/ ALT-92? just example
ALT-key plus the numeric keys from the numeric keypad. E.g. ALT-6, ALT-5 (65) should give you an A, ALT-6, ALT-6 (66) should give a B.

I'm on a Mac and the Alt-5 thing do work within DOSBox.
Hold down the Alt key while you type the numeric keys.
