Cannot Enter Text In Non-windows Programs

Options

Hello all,


I was running the BD2012 version without any troubles. Upgraded to BD Total Security yesterday.


That gave a huge problem:


I have to start all programs in 'Run as Administrator' mode if I want to enter any text from the keyboard (passwords, text, arrow-keys or ctrl-keys, etc.).


If I do not Run As Administrator: as soon as I press ANY key on the keyboard the program hangs. Mouse clicks are OK, so the programs work fine ... until I press a keyboard-key.


If the same program is Run As Adminitrator there is no problem at all.


This is so for all programs I tested.


Microsoft tools like e.g. Notepad, do not show this behaviour!


Connection to internet: no problem ... until I type some text in password-fields or any field in the browsers (FF24, IE10). They will freeze immediately.


I know what to do to get going for myself, but this problem has to be solved before I can roll out BD to other systems on our intranet.


Can anybody help me solve this problem?


BD version 17.20.0.883


Windows 7 Pro 64-bit


Intel Xeon CPU E5620


24GB RAM


4x 233 GB HD in RAID 5


USB keyboard and mouse


Thanks in advance!


Cheers,


Rui

  • By any chance, are you running with default options? Try booting up in safe mode and see if it makes a difference. You mean need to install this again. smile2.png


    Hi metzgermike,


    In safe-mode I have no problems!


    Does this mean that I'll have to reinstall or can I tweak any settings?


    Thank you!


    Cheers,
