Also, I have found that the game is pretty buggy when I use the 'mouse look' option. Eg, I'm often unable to pick up items from remains. I have a Logitech Cordless MouseMan Optical mouse, which has it's own software, so maybe some setting I have chosen with that software might be causing the problem? Anyway, I would prefer to use the mouse entirely to control movement. Any ideas?

walking and 'mouse look'
Is there an easier way to walk than simultaneously holding down both the W and B keys? I feel like I'm eventually gonna get tendonitis in my left hand.

Thanks for the response.
Pressing the W key makes the character run wherever he or she is facing. When you hold down the W and B keys together, the character will walk instead of run. I'm playing the game through for the first time, and I find that walking instead of running everywhere tends to deepen the movie-like immersion of the game.

That's generally true of any game which places a premium on the surrounding visual environment--look at Morrowind, for instance, where running causes the loss of stamina. Running in KotoR becomes more attractive after you've seen the sights; and you'll find that putting somebody at the front of your party using the Jedi speed powers helps negotiate those tedious passages you've checked out many times.
To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.
