Can't Change info

Tomato Can · 03-21-2006, 06:33 PM

Quite often when I go into the game and want to change the date or anything that has the field where a cursor needs to back up to erase a word, it does not work.

Instead of backing up the cursor when I hit backspace it just makes a ping sound. If I close the game out and try to re-open it it helps sometimes. But sometimes I have to do that a number of times to get it to work.

It even happens when I have nothing else "open" on my computer.

Does anyone know why this is happening? Is it just me or is anyone else having this occur? Could it be my computer? It doesn't happen with any other program.

Thanks for you help in advance.

It always happens to me when I alt-tab over to another window while the game is opening, the only way I have fixed it is to alt-tab back to the boxing game instead of clicking the tab at the bottom of the screen.

Thanks for the quick reply.

To my knowledge I have never alt tabed while the game was open.

I usually notice this when my game opens and it asks me for the date. If I want to change the date it almost always happens. Closing and reopening a few time usually allows me to change the date.

My fear is that this may be leading to something more serious. Not sure whether that is serious for my game or my computer.

I don't think that I had this problem before the latest up date.

... or a related one. What's happen sometimes is that when I try to type in information, like a fighter name or venue or something I'm searching for, as opposed to the point and click technique, sometimes nothing happens. What works for me is simply closing out the game and rebooting -- it has rarely, if ever, happened twice in a row. (I also have problems with the sounds going on and off, but that's really not a big issue as performance is unaffected.)

sounds like my same problem

Do you remember that happening before the last patch?

yes, I remember it happening before the patch, perhaps even with TB1. Always thought it was an issue related with my computer, not the game in general.

Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this?
