Is there any difference of using DirectInput or GetAsyncKeyState function? Does DirectInput have advantages? Question 2: Sometimes I can''t get quick keystrokes with DirectInput. How can I get all the keys if pressed?

1) GetAsyncKeyState doesnt support force feedback devices, joysticks/joypads, mice, etc etc. Prolly others that I cant think of... I only just woke up

2) Use buffered input if your missing events
