Did you check your controls in need for speed? Try setting them back to default and see if it works.

TATAR · 07-10-2009, 11:35 PM

i havn't changed them they should be on default

TATAR · 07-10-2009, 11:43 PM

ok i checked...well they are on deafault.i tried to do this: U know that there are Primary and Secondary controls..well the nitros is with "alt" and "n".I tried to steer left with left arrow and "alt" keys pressed together and "n" and left arrow again pressed together- i can't.But when i try this with the right arrow key it wirks i mean i can steer in that direction.Very nice it seems i need a new car

Mcninjaguy · 07-10-2009, 11:56 PM

What about assigning the turbo button to z, or using a 360 controller?

TATAR · 07-10-2009, 11:58 PM

well i'll try to reassign the nitro and see what'll happen,but i don't have a 360 controller

TATAR · 07-11-2009, 12:02 AM

ok i assign it to "z"...it works

ty,but how can u explain this? When u install a NFS game let's say Undercover;Carbon and Most Wanted coz i don't remember the others's controls,the nitro is put on "alt" and i have a fr that can stear with both arrow keys and with "alt"

Its probably your Keyboard. If its an old PS/2 keyboard then they have a limit of 3 key that can be held down at one time. But sometimes certain keys like Alt + Left + Up can cause problems which is why many games are now use W,A,S,D for direction keys.
I remember this issue when i use to play NFS - Hot Pursuit a life time ago.

Try this setup if its easier.

W - Forward
S - Backward
A - Left
D - Right
Space - HandBrake
V - View
B - Look Behind
Left Ctrl - Nos

Do you have a keyboard that can support macros? You may have some weird shotcut that was accidentally made too. I don't get this error but I have seen games with other weird things personally. Some things are just odd.

TATAR · 07-11-2009, 12:18 AM

nah i have a USB keyboard..so i think the problem is elswhere,coz my fr has a PS/2 keyboard and he can do those actions taht i can't

here is my keyboard: http://trust.com/products/product.aspx?artnr=15036

i don't know if my keyboard has macros u can have a look at her:http://trust.com/products/product.aspx?artnr=15036 and see for u'r self

**Aus_Karlos** · 07-11-2009, 12:30 AM

Have you downloaded the latest drivers.
http://trust.com/products/product.as...36&cxt=drivers

It seems weird that a USB keyboard would have this issue but then i do believe its the make of keyboard that determines the number of keys that can be pushed. Does it say anything on the underside of your keyboard.

TATAR · 07-11-2009, 12:34 AM

i've downloaded the latest drivers minutes ago and no differance.and on the back it says: TRUST
Info:www.trust.com
Made in China (maybe that's the problem)

Input:DC 5V 30mA

Mcninjaguy · 07-11-2009, 12:54 AM

I always like to use logitech keyboards.

I never use the drivers for the keyboard if I don't have to. I have a Logitech G9 gaming mouse but the mouse remembers my settings so If I want to change a setting I would re-download the driver software and install then change it if I wanted a new feature

My Keyboard

Logitech 967740-0403 Black 104 Normal Keys 8 Function Keys USB Standard Internet 350 USB Keyboard - OEM
$9.25
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16823126012

You'd be surprised that pretty much all of logitech's keyboards are really nice to type on, have good durability and nice reaction.

TATAR · 07-11-2009, 12:58 AM

yeah i like Logitech products too,but i havn't seen here a lot of them and didn't actually like their design i mean in the shops in Bulgaria

**Aus_Karlos** · 07-11-2009, 01:12 AM

Try plugging your Keyboard in another USB port? It can somtimes fix random bugs. Also does your keyboard have USB ports. If there is do you have anything else plugged into them, they could be drawing too much current for the Hub to handle.
