! Command Prompt Shift Key Stuck Bug with Newest NTVDM Updates
I remember this from my DOS days - press CTRL-ALT-LSHIFT=20
to stop the shift key "sticking"... -----Original Message----- Hi, I've recently updated my Windows XP system with all=20 the Windows Updates and now I've got a huge problem. Whenever I open a=20 command prompt (dos box) and run EDIT.COM then press the arrow keys, instead of=20 the cursor moving around, a selection highlight is created. For example if=20 I open a file with EDIT.COM and press the RIGHT arrow key, instead of the=20 cursor moving to the second character in the line, the first character is=20 selected (highlighted). I thought that it might be that the SHIFT key is stuck=20 but it's NOT, if I press an alphanumeric character, the right character=20 comes up instead of the shifted character (capital/lower case), also, pressing=20 any other character brings up the correct one (1 NOT !), only the arrow keys=20 seem to be affected. Any ideas? It's REALLY annoying. -- Alec =BF=C9=01=05 . |

Doing Ctrl+Alt+LeftShift didn't work and neither did altering the
display. Here's what's happening: If I move the mouse cursor with the mouse it works, if I move it with the numeric keypad with NumLock OFF it works, but if I use the arrow keys it has the same effect as if I was using the arrow keys while holding down the shift key. There's probably a bug in the latest NTVDM update that affects EDIT.COM. What I'm going to try is to restore my system and install each of the newer MS Updates and test after each one separately to narrow down exactly which one is messing things up (and NOT install it); but that's going to take some time and it'll probably have to wait until the weekend. -- Alec Soroudi ""Kailasraj Bhoite [MSFT]"" wrote in message ...

Yes, I tried out the different updates and found that they do not cause
it. The Microsoft updates (including the NTVDMs) are not the problem although the "811493: Security Update (Windows XP)" update causes my system to reboot immediately every time Windows boots. As for the EDIT.COM problem, it turns out that it is caused by the ATI Catalyst 3.4 Control Panel update. I did several test installing and uninstalling the ATI Control Panels and the problem only occurs when the 3.4 Control Panel is installed. I've informed them but ATI is notorious for ignoring feedback and bug reports. -- Alec T "Ivan Sheng [MSFT]" wrote in message ... Hi Alec, Anything update?
