Just to take the wind out of everyone's sails for a moment.

I also am experiencing strange keyboard behavior.

Using the mouse and keyboard to move around the battle map, there is sometimes a beep from the PC and then the battle maps acts as if one of the direction keys is being permanently pressed.

Believe me it drives me nuts. I lost Acre as a Citadel this way, and my crusade then went down the toilet two turns later.

Does anyone have this problem?

As sson as I heard wierless my brain started to buzz, thats's fairlly non-standered kit for serious gamers, so it rang immiddiete bells in my head TBH. Thats why I suggested the wired keyboard to check. That and it eliminates the keyboard from the possibbile causes.

Thanks for the tip General Boreaus Brittanicus.

But I'm using a Dell PS2 keyboard and a Dell cabled mouse.

Have you checked to see if a cat is standing on the keyboard? Sometimes my cat will jump on the keyboard and start walking on it. When he does, my MTW game will start doing really weird things similiar to what you are describing.
