Mine does handle some combinations up to 5 keys but most of the time it works well only for two or three keys preessed at the same time. It's due to hardware implemenation of the keyboard. Usually arrows keys are handled normally, i.e. you can press them altogether and keyboard will send you each scan code. But I know a lot of keyboards that doesn't work the same with letter and cipher keys... bye. Alexei A.
