Keyboar problems

Posted on 10/23/2009 3:37:08 AM PDT by 101voodoo

For the past 2weeks i have noticed significnt keyboard lag, wrds running together and letter drop when I type eitherin a documet or on aforum.

If you can read what precedes this sentence it will show you exactly what is happening.

I have a generic USB keyboard (Logitech) and have reinstaled the driver and the keyboard to no avail.

Any suggestions?

“Six bucks are you kidding me? No it’s at least seven. Maybe seven and a half.”

You are right.. I just asked my girlfriend.
340 pesos, about $7.25.

I see the problem. You are missing the “D” key.

When does the text input start slowing down?after the PC has been running for a while or after it’s first turned on?

I don’t think you have a keyboard problem persay.It seems like you have something running in the background that’s jogging your memory or CPU cycles.

I would also check to see that the PC’s cooling system is operating right.you wouldn’t believe the amount of dust that can get sucked into a PC.An overheated PC will start to act squirrly as well.

Last but Not the least check to see what programs are running in the background.If those programs are taking a high percentage of memory or system cycles shut them down temporarily and see how things operate.

Well that’s all I can add.I hope this helps you.

Is there an empty bottle of bourbon anywhere near your computer?

If so, I see the problem.

"Then give it to a Gypsie family and let it see the world for a while."

I did that but it smelled of garlic when I got it back, plus whenever I hit the escape key I get an erection.

Maybe you should put some ice on that...

“Get a Mac,”

Stimulate the economy, replace a $30 keyboard with a $1500 computer.

Where do you get 11 pesos to the dollar?
I do not understand your statement, but I did just wake up, haha
