Is it safe to hit this key or it will corrupt game files?
<b>Reason</b>: I want to reduce the game screen to task bar in order to check the guide. It's convenient. I did that a lot escpecially with BG2 [8D]

Actually it is pretty safe to use the windows key in this game as well as in many other games such as diablo, baldur-gate, IWD ... On the other hand, BoD will not tolerate it and the game will corrupt and you have to get out of there; in gothics, that key is not functional during the game. [8D]
This game is less intense than BoD, so sometimes I switch to play it.

I've only tried the W key with drakan a few times. But for games such as Baldur gate, Diablo, IWD ... I have used this key hundreds upon hundreds of times, and nothing bad has happened. So it may depends on each game. Also, my system is win2k pro, so maybe it is more stable than XP, 98, ME ... and as you said earlier, the worst thing is It may corrupt some session files.
