Hey everyone.
I have an iPaq 2200 with a ThinkOutside Stowaway XT keyboard.
I'm having two unrelated problems.
The first is that the keys on my keyboard seem to lack responsiveness, sometimes. Now, they're not bad at all, they work 98% of the time, but when I'm typing a lot I've noticed a missed key about once every couple lines. I'm certain I'm pressing the key, it's just not reacting.
Can anyone recommend a way to tweak this?
My second problem is a bit more irritating. Certain programs seem to be freezing up. At first I thought it was random, but it's struck me that they freeze when the iPaq powers down while they are loaded. The only programs I've noticed this with are Textmaker (with which it happens virtually every time the iPaq powers down) and ChessGenius. Basically what happens is that I cannot open their windows in any way, and stopping the processes (even with an "end task" command) just results in a few seconds of thinking and then nothing. The task remains open.
Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated!
