    I would have thought it was an error in the game I was trying to play (narbacular drop) however I recall Ken having an issue with the g1s where he couldnt get the console to work on battlefield I belive it was and it worked just fine on the g2s and other computers.

    So I think the C90 must share that problem and wonder if we have a solution?

    I cant load any custom maps without the console in the game.

    Can't the key binding be changed in some config files (or if you're lucky with some config GUI) for the game?

    in this case the game is very limited its a freeware game that was made by the guys that are working on portal.

    fun game too, but the actual game is short, after that its all about player made maps and you need the console to load them.

    Just tried on my desktop and it works fine, the notebook tho has the same problem ken had on the g1s.

    I haven't had any problems accessing the console in any of my games. I also tried it on Battlefield and it works fine.
