    Is it possible to disable certain buttons, SPECIFICALLY THE WINDOWS BUTTON? When I play Guild Wars I will sometimes accidentally press the Windows Button instead of Alt, and the game minimizes.

    Google keymapper. You can probably find a program that will help you can the mapping of the certain keys in windows and maybe even disable certain keys or map them to do nothing.l

    You can also just pop the windows button out, and pop it back in if you want. That's what I did when I played games on the PC.

    Yeah but it's still really convenient, and if you pop it out right it won't break so you can just put it back on if you want.

    Haha, reminds me of that German kid who smashes his keyboard while trying to play some game.

    Uh, how about just rebinding the alt key in Guild Wars? Surely it has custom controls?
