Problem

Symptoms: Occasionally, the cursor keys stick. The customer must press the keys several times to stop the cursoring. Sometimes the cursor keys would give the customer numbers and he couldn't see the cursor. The startup options of /NC/NK keep the cursor keys from sticking, but this customer is also using FaceLift and the cursor keys stick when he enters WP with FLWP. Solutions: Changing the cursor speed to Normal solved the problem of the cursor keys sticking. The startup options /NC/NK solved the problem of the cursor keys sticking and giving the customer numbers. Another customer corrected the problem by moving the line in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file which reads SET WP=/NC/NK so that it is on a line before the line which reads DOSSHELL. The DOSSHELL command must be on the last line in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Any commands placed after that line are not read.
