if anyone is playing Force Unleashed 2 on a g73 read this

SO i bought the game and i couldnt even play it on my g73. it was as if no keyboard or mouse was connected and it wanted to use a gampad.
as it turns out i had to do 2 things.

To get the keyboard to work....
I had to unplug my external keyboard. It wouldnt recognise the esternal usb (Saitek Eclipse) or the built in. once i unplugged the external it sees the built in.

TO get the mouse working. I had the option in synaptics to automaticly disable the touchpad if an external is plugged in. if you do this, nither mouse will work. Unchecking this allows me to use my external (Razor naga)

Hope this helps someone else....

 

Which model of the G73 you have?

 

Exact same as you
