Since I've got my Radeon card I've been having quite a few problems linked to controls in games.

In half-life, for instance, I can't redefine controls in the menu (arrow keys mainly) since instead of redefining it just moves the menu (hence why I cant define arrow keys, insert, delete, etc) and my shift key is for some reason constantly under use...

- This first appeared in Catalyst 3.4.

In wolfenstein I get the same problem with the shift key. It forces me to play without the shift key, since if I define it the shift key is always permanently on. I have no idea why both these games do this.

- This first appeared in Catalyst 3.5.

Any ideas?

ffs stop being suck a wanker I was suggesting num-lock because of his arrow key problem. I've had incidents where when i press arrows with numlock off and it moves up the screen where as when I press the arrow keys with num-lock on they work perfectly.

Get your facts straight u twat ur not happy unless ur taking the piss out of someones responses. If you can't think of anything constructive to add to the discuss don't both at ALL!

He asked you nicely is numlock affected shift in that way - no need to bitch...

I'd rather see answers instead of bitching.

its not what he asked its how he asked it.

Hes so bloody sarcastic to everyone he should pull his head out of his arse from time to time and look at himself in the mirror.

How he asked it?
Sure there are a LOT of emotions in text.

But now if I could have helpful posts it would be very cool. Thanks.

There is a known issue with ATI control panel in Catalyst 3.4, and looks like its still in the 3.5s. Whereby having NUMBER lock ON, causes keys not to be recognised in games and apps. I had the issue when trying to play RTCW, simply turn off number lock b4 playing, and it'll be fine Im sure. :)

Wait a second - does that mean I just need to uninstall the Control panel?
Because I need the num lock to play - or could I just turn num lock off and then back on through the game?

Cat 3.2 works with HL - albeit laggy
Cat 3.4 onwards makes my keys not work...

I might re-try HL tonight.
