Does your keyboard have software perhaps that might be causing it?
Possibly. I certainly never installed any. Also, I'm not using the default keyboard that came with the system; I'm using a super-old IBM clicky one.
Which strategy game?
Cossacks: Back to War
Which pause button?
"Pause"
Are you actually hitting the "pause" button on your keyboard? Protip, don't do that.[b/]
I don't know that I can alter the keybindings for pausing to a different key.
[b]And yes, it's possible your keyboard uses (in most cases completely unnecessary and annoying) extra keyboard software. How to get rid of it? Eh I can't do this without looking at it...
The keyboard that came with it is a Gateway. I'm using now, as I said, an old clunky IBM one.
