Sorry - I didn't see all of your question before replying. I'm not
sure why you didn't get any response from the keyboard. I have not
tried AppleWin myself. Try disabling the mouse card and see if that
improves anything. I was unable to have the mouse card enabled in
Virtual ][ until one of the latest versions.
