Hi!

I'm new to the A1200NG. And I have a question and hope someone can help me:
I have running AmigaOS 3.2.3 on my 1200NG. My keyoard is a new mechanical keyboard from Amigastore.eu built for real Amiga 1200 with US layout.

Problem: the backslash key is not working or, at least, nothing happens when I press on that key.

If I switch layout of the keyboard, for example, to german then I see characters on screen when pressing the \ | key. But neither with US nor with GB layout. Also the "(" and the ")" keys on the numberpad aren't working.
A problem is that I don't have an Amiga 1200 with OS3.2.3 to test the keyboard on real hardware.

Does anybody has an idea? Any help is welcome... because otherwise I can't use and create blitzbasics custom types  ::)

I have had keyboard issues with 3.1.4, 3.2+.
Best way to test, is go into early startup menu and press the keys that are not working. See if it switches between NTSC and PAL. Its a tester of sorts.
Test with KS 3.1 and then KS 3.2.3.
