Keyboard Scanning

Guys -

For the past several months, I've had problems with keyboard scanning in DOSEmu. Specifically with NASCAR Racing 1999 Edition, I use the keyboard during the race which naturally requires constant activation of the arrows on the keypad. NASCAR Racing simply doesn't respond to key movement properly if at all. The game will occassionally respond to key input, but NASCAR Racing simply does nothing with the depressed keys most of the time. I've tried switching the keyboard layout from "auto" to "us" with no success.

TIA
