You could try getting its scancode value and then checking if it is pressed. I haven't tested this so its just an idea...

I don't think you can disable it.. Almost every game suffers from the dreaded "arrgh! I hit the windows-key!"....

Unfortauntely, I think you might need a third party program to disable the windows key.

incidentally, disable systemkeys only disables alt+f4 and alt+tab

Can I ask you a Question?
What is it?
It's an interrogative form of sentence, used to test knowledge. But that's not important right now.

You could do this

null=1

If keystate(windowskey here)=1 then inc null,1

May work...
