Sticky keys on Rogue Spear

question (without paying anything anyway). Does anyone know if there is
something I can do to fix this?

I think it might have something to do with the soundcard drivers.
I am running with the 3DFX Beta drivers and have no "Sticky Mouse" When I load the new 3DFX drivers I have the sticky mouse. I put the Beta drivers back on. No sticky mouse. I load the new sound card drivers . I have sticky mouse. I put the old sound card drivers on. No sticky mouse.
Sounds kind of stupid but I think the beta drivers for my hardware are better than the "official" ones.
System:
K6-2 450
FIC VA-502+ Motherboard
96 MB RAM
13 GB HD
6 GB HD
4 GB HD
Voodoo3 2000 PCI
Sound Blaster live MP3+
Iomega Zip CD (Which doesn't work correctly after I did the update from Microsoft)

Quite a good response...
The main similarity I see so far is soundcards and mice.
I've just installed the Creative beta Liveware2k that someone posted the url to the other day, and must admit I haven't seen much of an improvement.
You do seem to be correct in one thing, Beavis, the beta drivers do appear to be better than the RC stuff thats been coming out in the last couple of days.
Perhaps if people could also list what other games they had problems with, that might give some ideas (Also others can install them if they own them to confirm or deny they have a problem.)

So, ok guy, from what you've posted... Beavis has old drivers for the Live! on Win2k? The Beta's posted on the NG's don't work for me & the Dell "Offical" drivers don't make any differance. Are there other drivers for the Live! I don't know about? I mean, Beavis, if you say that some old drivers fix your sticky key problems, I'd love to know.
If I use the drivers, that come with Win2000 for my Sound Blaster Live, I do not have any problems. (Sound wise) I do not have all the bells and whistles that I should have for the card though (4 speaker support, EAX?, EQ) But the card does work and I do not have a "sticky mouse" problem.
Strange huh?
