Remember the computer game "Paranoid"?

Asked by Noobie (11points) | asked February 27th, 2009 | 3 responses | “Great Question” (0points) | Flag as…

There was a computer game I used to play long time ago when we were using DOS instead of Windows. It is called Paranoid.

My problem is that, now that I want to play this game, I have to use the Shift keys, but when I hit the Shift key several times in a row I get the “StickyKey” message from Windows XP that interrupts the game.

I was wondering if anybody knows how to change the Settings of this game so that I can use other keys instead of the Shift keys.

Couldn’t you just turn of sticky keys in windows (the setting is in ease of access – keyboard settings somewhere)

Paranoid was a great game. Had it for the C64 and loved it.

Ah, thanks. I was thinking about doing that but couldn’t find it. Now that I look more carefully I find it. I had to hit the Shift key 5 time and then un-check the box for “shortcut for StickyKey” in the Settings.

But if I want to turn it on do you know where I can find it?!

Why would you want to turn stickykeys on? I never found a use for it, it was just a nuisance.
