Dear community of DayZ Standalone, Today I bought a keyboard and a monitor. I hooked it up to my laptop, but when I press CAPS LOCK and Backspace to speak / chat, the game minimizes. I have never had this problem before! And I have been on Google and reading like crazy - but can't find any answers to my issue. Does anyone know how to fix this? It happens if i plug out the screen, and just try to play on my laptop only.. I have no idea how this could have happened. NOTE: At first it only happened while pressing / holding CAPS, but then a bit later it happened when I pressed backspace as well. I would be extremely happy if someone could come with possible solutions! I really need help here. Thank you so much in advance! :) :beans:

It doesn't happens with the backspace anymore, only the keys that display a graphic box in the corner to notify me that the caps is on / off you know.. So that is where the problem is. I have managed to change the talk key to the back button on my mouse, so I'm fine for now.. But I still want to solve this problem anyways. :-) What do you mean by model? It's a special built laptop. http://gyazo.com/0c4ed376467eac50f539880749cac147

I think its caused by the graphic thiny when you for example turn up/down volume. It displays a little box in the corner. But it's weird that it happens when I press backspace as well, since there is no graphic notification when you press it..

I have an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX 4gb

Ehm, I cannot find any monitor settings. Could you show me? Perhaps add me on skype: auriowis I beg you for help!

Just now I lost all of my items, and we're freshly respawned - this happened for some hours ago too. I had Mosin, almost full military gear, mountain backpack and much more items! Many guns and ammo that took me ages to get! And when I log into ANY server, all my items are gone, I'm in a new place and have NOTHING. I know the game is Alpha, and I know things like this can happen. I'm not bitching, I'm simply sharing my story to feel better. Has this happened to anyone else?

sabre05; I am dealing with it, and I'm also aware of the game's current state. But I posted this to figure out if there was anything I was doing wrong, or if anyone has experienced the same issue - or just me. Both times I was on the top of buildings, where you must go up ladders to get to, so no zombies can have killed me. Neither players, I always stare at the landscape and make sure I am completely safe before logging out. But I'm pretty sure it's because I went into first person mode-servers. This has happened sometimes. Thank you very much for posting the solution DJ SGTHornet! Yeah, it really sucked losing all that gear. I had hunter summer pants, weapons with tons of ammo - everything. So this was very sad! But now I know and will be more careful in the future! Sincerely, Mariusgt

Hello everyone, Me and my friend just downloaded DayZ, he opened it up with absolutely no problems. But it was not that easy for me.. When I open the game, everything is zoomed in on the logo (white letters with some colors) and after that the DayZ logo comes, and then the whole screen gets black. I have been waiting, restarting and now trying to re-install. But whats weird, is that when I try to take a screenshot from my computer, I get a picture of my desktop zoomed in. This is very weird.. Anyone knows what the problem could be? I am currently re-installing it. But what if that doesn't work either? - Thank you very much

I finally was able to get into the menu, but then I changed the game quality, and now it has frozen on the DayZ logo with a red loading bar underneath it. It comes up again even if I try to close/open the game.. Why is there so many problems with me?

Thanks for answering my thread. I got directed to your Guide (http://imgur.com/a/nPJ7Y). But I don't get that menu up at all, after the DayZ logo vanishes, the screen is just black, with the spinning mouse circle.. I used the second method on the top of the page, and was able to change the resolution to (1920 x 1080p). But still, just a black screen..

I have tried re-installing the game, restart my laptop, updated Abobe Flash Player - and still I have the same problem! Please help me! :(
