    Dont know about the computer thing,  there are some excellent "Geeks" ;o)  on this site who will help you there.

    In the betting box when you are playing a table, bottom left hand corner, you will see a small box with the value your bet will be before you action it,  If you click on that box you can input any number you like. ( above min bet, raise obviously )

    Hope that helps

    You probably have too much happening in the background on your PC. Or you have too many tables open for your PC to cope. Try playing fewer tables or having less programs on in the background. That should help.

    hi bud, make sure you have the latest updates of flash player, adobe air and the sky poker software, if you are unsure goto www.adobe.com and check your flashplayer it will tell you if you are up to date.

    then try uninstalling both Adobe Air and Sky Poker using add/remove programs in control panel. then re install the download from the homepage on Sky Poker, 
    hope this helps

    My old PC used to do this, an IBM Thinkpad. Since I bought my Dell it is fine now. My IBM never did it on other sites with downloaded software though.

    A friend of mine said said the Apple's allowed users to bet odd amounts, it may be this. Try asking them, if they are the chatty type they might tell you.

    The type of computer doesn't matter as it's a function built into the software - see JOCKBMW's reply above.

    It's bottom right. Just above the raise button you will see a small white box with a value in it, you can click in the box with your mouse and delete the value and type in your own raise size.
