Thanks for the explanation.
This works the way I want it to... working with the rollover without causing an
overflow error even if I leave overflow checking turned on.
DWord((QWord(GetTickCount) - QWord(Last_Input_Info.dwTime)) AND
$)

Oh I see.. it does work on DWord.. I was testing it with constants:
Writeln($FFFE+$0006);
But I think the compiler resolved this so it would never create a overflow
error..
When I do it with variables now I get the overflow and I can control it with
{$Q-} and {$Q+}
Is there some way I c

Indeed keeping it a DWord solves all the problems for any amount of time less
than the 49.7 day rollover time and I don't even have to check for the rollover
because it takes care of itself by doing unsigned arithmetic.
Is there even such a thing as overflow checking for DWord variables?
I did

Detection is normally done by: if current tick is less than saved tick,
roll-over has occurred. Make adjustments to the delta.
There is no need to do that, just make sure you're using DWORDs (i.e.
unsigned arithmetic)
