FS-UAE 2.0.1 on Win7-64bit

hello,

the fs-uae "GUI" (when pressing F12) does not show up. I remember saw it one time, but the other times i pressed F12, there is no GUI (but the emulated amiga image still moves)

what is wrong with my installation?!

Maybe I should run it in Admin or compability-Mode? Very strange, a disappearing GUI after a few starts... no ideas?!

I haven't heard about this problem from users before (and never seen it on the Windows PCs I've tested on either). - And there's no reason to suspect that admin rights / compatibility mode should improve anything.

While you are experiencing the problem:
- I suppose you have checked that there's no Fn-lock which transform the F12 key into something else?
- Does the problem occur only in window mode, fullscreen mode, or both?
- Does the F11 key work? (it should toggle zoom modes)
- Does the F12 key work as a modifier? - Does for example F12+f work to toggle fullscreen?
- Does the F11 key work as a modifier? - Does for example F11+f work to toggle fullscreen?
- Does the keyboard work at all when the F12 key does not work? Does Alt+Enter toggle fullscreen for example? Do Amiga software get key presses?

It was in windowed mode, no locked F12 key, F11 won´t show up a dialog

F12 worked as modifier for fullscreen toggle

.. more i can´t tell because i installed Fs-uae again.. and it works normal now.

Based on what you said on your last post, I have only one theory..

Since F12 also works as a modifier key, it does nothing on key *press*, since you might be trying to perform a key combo. If the F12 is pressed and then released, with no other key being pressed in the meantime, the open/close menu function will be triggered.

So my guess is that something on your system repeatedly generates key presses somehow (cat on the keyboard, a peripheral of some sort, etc) ;-)

I'll also add F11/F12+m as shortcuts to open the menu, for cases where the F12 key can't be used.
