CTRL Keys Not Functional on Monterey International Keyboard (64444)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 3.0
- Microsoft Windows 3.0a
This article was previously published under Q64444 SYMPTOMS
The CTRL (Control) keys may not function correctly on the Monterey
International 104 key US keyboard, Model K104, when you use Microsoft
Windows version 3.0.
CAUSE
This keyboard has three possible settings: a(at), x(xt), and s(standard).
If you set the keyboard to position "a" and choose "101 or 102 key US and
Non-US keyboard" in Windows Setup, the CTRL key sends the same ASCII code
as the SHIFT key.
WORKAROUND
A possible workaround is to configure the keyboard as "All AT type
keyboards" (84-86 keys) in Windows Setup, and place the keyboard selector
in position "a." Note that this method disables F11 and F12. There may be
other undocumented compromises to keyboard functionality.
