I am getting intermittent problems with my keyboard misbehaving.
I am running VRPC with Select.
First problem while in RiscOS mode apparently "stuck" key ie continuos repeats with no finger on key. Istopped this by turning off auto repeat on VRPC.
Second problem in the middle of typing VRPC stops taking keyboard input, and I can find no way to get it respond. Only way back is to get back to XP and reboot.

Has anyone else seen this or have any ideas.

I get the auto-repeat problem sometimes. Only with the delete key though. Pressing escape quickly seems to stop it, although it comes back next time delete is pressed.

Yes we have seen it and are looking into the problem. If a key
gets stuck down then pressing the same key again will unstick it,
what seems to be happening is that RISC OS never gets the
key up event after the key down event. It is very rare and I have
only had reports if it under XP, never under Win2000. Once we
have a fix it wll be made available on the website.

I have seen this problem and I am using win2000.... And I don't find it is occuring very rarily...
