is there something wrong with my computer?

I have logged into coh for a day or so and have found some curious problems. My keyboard doesn't work for walking, abilities, etc. Only for the talking.. and then i have to click on the chat box to type.. i can't hit enter. nothing works and i have fixxed it but then it just starts again after i close the game... any advice?

What did you do that fixes it for the rest of the play session? That'll definitely help in figuring out the source of the issue. Also, has it always done this for you, or is this a new occurrence?


You should post a CoH Helper and HiJack This log, so we'll know a bit about your system.

We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.

i do nothing during gameplay... i close it nicely i reset all settings, i restart. sometimes it doesn't work i repeat process until it works... strange yes?

hmm.... Typing in chat is just typing text. Technically, everything else you do from the keyboard involves keybinds. It sounds as if all of your default keybind settings are getting wiped. I'm not at my gaming system, but there is an option in the Menu, under Keybinds, to reset them all. See if that fixes it.

Did we perhaps not click the button at the login point to tie it to your account atleast once or perhaps after the recent update it's forgotten to check for the local bind file?

whatever reason it is, it is bizzare. I have always had my account bind btw too

If you want any help, you should post a CoH Helper and HiJack This log. It'll provide the basic information pretty much required to try to solve any issue like this. We're not psychic, so we can't magically know about your system and setup.

I've also seen issues with "Anti Keylogger" programs, If I remember correctly, comcast has a "free" Antivirus that includes one, as does McAfee. These work by scrambling the key codes sent to programs, and while chat might work, everything else will be borked. So yeah, HiJackThis, and CoH Helper please.

I currently own a chinese computer and on the computer it comes with a chinese imput method like double clicking ctrl or ctrl+space. I have tried to use this during the game, but for some reason it doesn't allow me to type chinese in game, why is that? and could this be the issue possibly?

dude read their posts follow these guys advice or you aren't gonna find out what the problem is.

i'm not comfortable with adding my computers information log on a forum.... lol I just wanted to hear some advice, or maybe, if anyone else has had this same situation. Also I noted that when this happends i restart my computer and the application, and then for some reason it will be working again. This isn't normal.. I can understand restarting the program, but restarting the whole computer seems like yes another application is interferring with the keybinds.. Once when I had the problems after I had restarted my computer even in the first part of turning on the computer and selecting what you want to do. My enter key wasn't working then too.. " the same as when i load the game and enter username and password enter will not work, when it works then the game works. " what kind of problem can it be that even after turning off the game and restarting can affect the start up of windows? ? ?

yea it's a chinese windows 7 professional. i think maybe a security does do something possibly... I think 360 a security software is free, i'm not sure. If it isn't making an anti keylogger then, the software used to type chinese could be the problem.. I haven't uninstalled anything, only installing. and as far as installing, i've basically only installed this game . . . it is strange it can be like this during start up, but after loading windows home page it was ok, i can't remember if the game was ok or not thought

either way i know what is wrong with my car as i'm explaining the details. I can give the information to support or i can just try to figure out what kinds of problems cause it and see if i can possibly just turn off the application or something

Whether you decide not to provide the info to us here or directly in a support ticket, the results will be the same. What's posted by the applications greatly increases the chances that a stab in the dark comes significantly closer to aiming for the heart of the issue. If you read the related threads on how/what to post, then you will find that there's nothing necessarily "identifying" about it and if you're Really concerned, then read through them and edit out what you're concerned someone might use. I seriously don't know how they could use any of it, but still.

oh? sorry man i can't get youtube in china. . .
