Older help versions state: ReadConsoleInput function available starting in Windows 95
It's just that Microsoft is erasing references to older systems.
Above I wrote that I tried both GetNumberOfConsoleInputEvents and PeekConsoleInput and WaitForSingleObject , but it did not help.
For some reason, the function sometimes slows down for longer periods of time than usual. Usually 30-80ms, but about every 15-20 returns it runs 300-600ms
