11428 2001-04-17 05:23:00 I frequently hit the windows key by mistake while gaming and it pops up the 'start' menu causing the game to crash. HELP! I use Win 98 operating system and I've seen utilities to kill the windows key for Win 95 but nothing for 98 or beyond... I do use the windows key during regular work but it's a pain during games. I would disable it altogether if I have to but would prefer being able to switch it off at will... Guest (0)

You will be much less likely to press it then

11430 2001-04-18 03:36:00 well, I was hoping for a software work around but that's not a bad idea... I could just saw off the little prong and glue it back in place!

;)
