Hi mm,

I'm quite glad not to be the only one to have had this problem.
The only workaround I found is described on the following link :

I am using the following test code to map

-------------
private HardwareButton hwb4;

public Form7()
{
this.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(this.OnKeyDown);
HWButtonConfig();
}

private void HWButtonConfig()
{
try
{
hwb4 = new HardwareButton();
hwb4.AssociatedControl = this;
hwb4.HardwareKey = HardwareKeys.ApplicationKey4;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
//
}
}

private void OnKeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
switch ((HardwareKeys)e.KeyCode)
{
case HardwareKeys.ApplicationKey4:
try
{
label1.Text = "Fyll " + xx++;
}
catch(Exception)
{
label1.Text = "Fyll E ";
}
break;

default:
break;
}
}

and it works fine for 18 key presses
but then the event stops firing (no exception
generated).

To start it again I have to relaunch the
form and then I get another 18 key presses...

Is there a way around this behaviour? My real
application needs to do more than 18 key presses
in a row!
