While it could be because of the keyboard you're using,
I remember that in some older systems there were controls in the BIOS
for setting how the keyboard acts when pressing multiple keys.
When I say older systems I mean < 486. Not sure if any of those have
survived to this day.

I've found some information on the subject:
It seems that the limitation is the hardware, it depends on the
keyboard you're using

Hi All
I have a weird problem with checking if multiple keys are down.
In the code example beneath, i check if the 4 arrow buttons (not on
the numpad) are down or not.
All individual, work fine, 2 at the same time works fine as well, but
the third button i press isn't noticed.
And even weirder sometime it does. It depends on the combination you
make.
Anyone has a solution, or a clue?
thanx

37 = left
38 = up
39 = right
40 = down
CODE:
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if(Key.isDown(37)) {
trace('37 is down');
} else {
trace('37 is NOT down');
}
if(Key.isDown(38)) {
trace('38 is down');
} else {
trace('38 is NOT down');
}
if(Key.isDown(39)) {
trace('39 is down');
} else {
trace('39 is NOT down');
}
if(Key.isDown(40)) {
trace('40 is down');
} else {
trace('40 is NOT down');
}
}
