For some reason my F8 button isn't working. I know it's not a hardware issue because it doesn't work for both my powerbook keyboard and for the USB keyboard I have plugged in. To test it, I went to USB Overdrive and was trying to map my joystick to keystrokes, and it picked up all the other function buttons fine, but when I pushed F8, it wouldn't pick it up. Anyone have any ideas on what the problem could be? This sucks, 'cause I have no way of installing an OS on Virtual PC since I need F8 to agree to the licence agreement!
