This is the problem. You can't use the Drivers, CRT and Video unit together.
Each of them tries to catch keystrokes, and they will randomly receive them.
(depending on thread usage).
You should use only Video or only CRT or only Drivers
(though it can be that drivers and video work together)

It will still cause problems, because the C library also will interfere
with the
Video and CRT units...
It's planned to base the CRT unit on the video unit (so they would work
together),
but until now no-one had time.
Michael.
I remember you can call any function/procedure/var/type/etc in a specific
unit using unitname:functionname so call Drivers:Keypressed or
CRT:Keypressed or Vide:Keypressed.
But perhaps i remember wrong.
