Eagle of Fire As a old DOS user I always find the \ key exactly where it should be: right next to the right shift key. But with a laptop it is completely different as many laptops don't even have the same key configuration too...

XZ03 Hello dosraider and fifth horseman!

I think you were right btw, I do remember adjusting dos key settings very long ago. Also I don't have a numpad, but I did try the keyb (keyb us) worked fast and well, thank you! I'm using a regular HP Laptop, seems \ was the only thing that was different

The Fifth Horseman It's possible you accidentally changed the keyboard layout settings - either in DOSBox or in your operating system.

dosraider Or keyb xx
More info:
keyb /? @ prompt
and even more info @ http://vogons.zetafleet.com/viewtopic.php?t=21824

Notice: some (rare) game won't like a non-US keyb layout.

Or use the numpad "/"

Or input ALT+92 @ prompt

Or .... etcetera .................

XZ03 Oh....Nevermind. I figured it out-- But if anyone else happens to run into the same thing it's simple:

Control + F1

Will open keymapping ;]

DOSbox problem with "\" key configuration

I don't know if anyone else has had this problem but it's new to me since (DOSBox.074). The keys shifted, the \ key instead appears as ]. Is there a way to reconfigure? If not it's okay, thank you
