Keyboard being really slow and delayed

Question

Keyboard being really slow and delayed

Anonymous

Hello,

I've had this laptop for maybe around 2-3 years now, I stopped using it a long time ago and recently came back to it finding everything slow, I have fixed and updated mainly everything, but the keyboard is super slow sometimes and I cannot find a way to fix this. Yes. Sticky Keys and Use Filter Keys are both unselected.

What I'm talking about when I say that my keyboard is slow is whenever I type everything can be super delayed, out of order, or sometimes it just keeps on repeating/holding on one key for a little while. And it's weird because sometimes it doesn't lag at all and it mainly happens when I'm typing on an open program like a game or something, but it still is kind of slow whenever I'm on the web, just not as much as if I'm on a program though.

I've searched for answers but no luck, so this is kind of my last hope. If anyone has any information that'll be great, I would greatly appreciate it.

Dear IAmBobb,

I'm Dyari. Thanks for reaching out. I will be happy to assist you in this regard.

To fix this issue kindly try the steps below:

1-Try to use another keyboard and check if the issue still persists or not. If the issue still persists, it means the issue is software-related and it is best to Update its driver from Device Manager. If it does not fix the issue, uninstall the keyboard driver and download then install the latest driver from the manufacturer's website.

2-Change the keyboard layout and check whether the issue still persists or not:

3-Perform a clean boot and disable non-Microsoft services:

After that check to see if the issue still persists or not. If the issue is fixed, do the same procedure and re-enable the services one by one until you find the service that causes the issue.

4-Start your computer in Safe mode and check to see if the issue still persists or not:

7-If your keyboard warranty is still applicable, contact your product's manufacturer to run a diagnostic on your device.

Please let me know if you need further assistance and keep me updated.

Have a nice day
