Is there anyway I can turn the key off on my keyboard that brings up the start menu? Keep pressing it in games which destroys my display so have to exit the game!

I always found the windows key pretty handy when online gaming with jedi knight- display the game as a window just a bit smaller than desktop, to go back to your All seeing eye ( onlime game organiser/finder/ thingymijig ) you just hit the windows key to let the systray appear to switch between programmes if you know what I mean

Superb

Thank you

I wouldnt mind so much, but it destroys the brightness in the game as soon as it appears, and the brightness is controlled by Windows. The controls on my TFT monitor have no effect, so I have to exit and start again.

Have problems finding a different key to bind it to, as my right hand is on my mouse, and that only leaves my pinky on my left hand for bashing in CoD

q = crouch

w = straffe left

e= straffe right

r= jump.

space ( thumb ) = move forward

tab (pinkie finger ) = view mission??

f = floodlight???


that combo or similar works for every game I get, sppose, its what youre used to.

Yeah you get used to certain keys

q = move forward
x = move backward
a = move left
d = move right
q = lean left
e = lean right
c = crouch
space = stand/jump
ctrl = prone
tab = view scores

which leaves shift, \, or Z for bashing. Its set to shift or \ but I sometimes miss!
