    Keystrokes in NTVDM incorrect

    Hi!

    I want to run some old DOS games in Windows NT. The command prompt
    responds correct to my keystrokes with the right codepage etc. But when I
    run a program, it recieves scrambled keycodes. I am not sure whether this
    goes for every program or just some - I would expect it from ones that use a
    certain interrupt to read keyboard input.
    What could be the problem here? (And the solution?)

    something to do with NT and direct memory access I believe. Am not quite sure, but you may want to read up on why NT does not like DOS programs!
