I see that all the forum's hackers are hanging out here, so I have a question for them! I'm having a problem where, when I press a key on the keyboard, the game crashes and returns to Windows (e.g., Space Rangers 2). It wasn't happening before; what could be causing this?

Reinstall the game; if that doesn't help, reinstall Windows.

Or maybe it’s because there isn’t enough space on the system drive?

Dear UTER! 1) Uninstall and reinstall the *codecs*. I recommend using (Vista-XP_Codec_Package). 2) Install TuneUp Utilities 2008 and scan the entire system with it. Start with *One-Click*, then *Registry*. 3) If that doesn't help, let me know.

Thank you, the problem is solved!
It's not a codec issue, but I'll try installing them anyway!

Hey everyone, could you help me solve a problem with my laptop? The operating system is Vista. Recently, the keyboard only understands Russian; it completely refuses to switch to English. Moreover, the usual and frequently used key combinations, such as Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V, have stopped working. The language icon in the taskbar has disappeared, so it's impossible to switch the keyboard layout using it. In short, I haven't been able to find a solution, although I may not have checked everything. I don't usually work with the laptop, and I'm not familiar with Vista; my husband and children usually use it. It's quite possible that the children did something. Maybe someone can suggest what the problem might be and how to restore everything to its original state? Thank you in advance, even if I don't get any advice.

The language icon in the taskbar has disappeared, so I can't use it to switch the keyboard layout either.

In the Control Panel, there should be an applet something like "Language and Regional Settings" (I don't remember the exact name) - everything is configured there.
If you can't find it, try right-clicking on the taskbar, selecting "Properties," and see if there's a keyboard layout switcher there.
Also, there's an option to edit the system registry (by the way, in my opinion, it's the simplest and fastest way), but you need to know how to do it.

P.S. To be honest, I saw Vista only once, for about three hours, on a newly purchased laptop - I configured it well, looked at it, and then deleted it.

Well, you can switch the language through the control panel (see the screenshot).

However, if these settings have disappeared from the control panel, that's unusual. Personally, I would clean the registry with something like CCleaner, but it's not guaranteed to help.

Hooray, hooray, hooray!!!
Thank you, Am and Motor :) Now the language switch works :)
Although I was already there, trying to fix the problem... but I guess I missed something :) Anyway, who knows what happened :) But now everything works :)))
Thank you very much again :)

P.S. I'm probably a complete noob....
