Registry Keyboard Response Default Values

Question

Hi Folks:

Can someone tell me what the default values are for the items under Control Panel/Accessibility/Keyboard Response are? Specifically:

AutoRepeatDelay
AutoRepeatRate
BounceTime
DelayBeforeAcceptance

Cheers!

Answer 1

From my old Kernel docs and from "Mastering Windows XP Registry" (same values) =>

AutoRepeatDelay This entry has a default value of 1000, or one second. Increasing this value
increases the wait time before the keyboard auto-repeat kicks in.

AutoRepeatRate This entry has a default value of 500. Increasing this value increases the
repeat rate.

BounceTime This entry has a default value of 0. This value specifies the amount of time to
ignore a keystroke after pressing and releasing a key. This helps eliminate false double
keystrokes.

DelayBeforeAcceptance This entry has a default value of 1000. Increasing it increases the
amount of time that a key must be pressed before it registers as being pressed. Changing the
default here is useful if a user has a tendency to hit keys by mistake.

With these registry values a took faster keyboard :

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Accessibility\Keyboard Response]

"AutoRepeatDelay"="200"

"AutoRepeatRate"="6"

"DelayBeforeAcceptance"="0"

"Flags"="27"
