Were is the 'any' key.

Hi I bought this new game but when I load it it asks 'press any key to continue' the thing is there is no key on my keyboard called the any key. I have also checked my brothers laptop and my friends computer with no luck. Can someone help.

Are you serious?

Yeah, very funny alright.. :rolleyes:

Like someone could install a game, log on to the internet, post on a forum and still not find the "any" key.

I feel your pain. When i bought my new computer, i ordered from germany, and they gave me a defective computer. It had no any key on it! So i had to return it to get a proper one. That took ages, but now i have one, and all is well.

Never order from germany

That's a real puzzler you've got yourself there my friend!

I suggest you press the appropriate button and order yourself a Tab whilst you mull over the situation.

Damn it I have three keyboards and they all appear to be defective none of them have this any key. I'm gonna send them back and get them replaced.

Has anyone ever installed a game that asked you to press any key?


I haven't.

I don't have an any key either but I do have a panic key.
I notice they now have any keys as well. I must upgrade.

clearz

OK I was taken the piss but one of my friends had just told me that one of the top questions asked to technical support in dell, compac ect was "Where is the any key on the keyboard"

http://web14.compaq.com/falco/detail.asp?FAQnum=FAQ2859

I also liked the one about "Press del to enter bios" and people pressing the dell logo. People like this should be electronically taged and banned from ever using a PC again. Its people like this that have the internet crawling in viri and spam. but its funny all the same.

Don't Dell's use F2 to enter the bios? All the ones at work here for the last few years do anyway. Maybe that's a recent addition, probably caused by all the confused customers. I wouldn't have thought a Dell customer would even know what the bios was though

Deadwing

I thin kthis is a keyboard we could all do with
