  1. Keyboard lags and cannot type more than one stroke every few seconds


    When I turned on my laptop this morning, my laptop keyboard wasn't working properly. Ican only type a character every few seconds or it wont register. If I hold down a key it will type that chaeacter repeatedly at the standard rate after an initial delay on the first entry. I have tried reinstalling my keyboard drivers and checked the sticky keys and feature keys were off.What else could be the issue? I have a lenovo legion 5 pro

  2. Keyboard input lag (Logitech K270 wireless keyboard, Windows 10 20H2)

    Hi there. I've got yet another Windows 10 problem. lol

    This time it's my keyboard. I'm using a Logitech K270 wireless keyboard, on Windows 10 Pro 20H2. I have been experiencing keyboard input lag off and on for a couple months now, and I've searched for possible solutions, but none so far have worked. I was hoping you guys could suggest some fixes.

    Here's what I've tried, based on the suggestions I've found on the web:
    • Updating the keyboard/dongle's drivers (there are no drivers on Logitechs's site, oddly) and firmware. Nope.
    • Swapping USB ports. Nada.
    • Unplugging any extraneous USB devices. Zilch.
    • Checking the batteries. No joy.

    As I was typing this it was lagging here and there. It's a bit disconcerting. Anyway... I don't think I missed anything, but if you need more information or diagnostics, lemme know and I'll upload 'em.

    Lagging keyboard. Sometimes text that I type doesn't show on screen.

    My Computer / keyboard is lagging something fierce. It just started happening, and I have no clue what has caused it. The only thing that I've done is change mouses a couple times. I will type something in a text box, and sometimes the text will not show up for up to 5-10 seconds, and then it will show up slowly.

    Also, maybe related? I don't know. It seems that some progams don't open as quick. I've gone through all the diagnostics , run all the cleaning and speed up programs in System Mechanic, and it shows as running okay. Also did the same thing with Glary Utilities. I'm totally befuddled. Also, the mouse lags (I've tried 3 different) and the scroll lags.


    Please, any suggestions?*sarc*Huh*Rolleyes*Confused*Eek*Sick*Shock
     
  4. Keyboard lags and cannot type more than one stroke every few seconds

    Keyboard has a weird type of lag.

    I have a Windows 10 laptop, which I use to play games occasionally. Two out of three times there will be an inconsistent lag in my keyboard inputs. For example, if I press a button to move forward, after half a second of pressing it my character will start
    moving. But, when I let go, my character will keep moving for a bit. This lag is also quite noticeable in typing, but at least keys don't get repeated. It's very inconsistent, sometimes it will happen, others it will not, and the only thing that can fix it
    is a restart, which doesn't always work. All my drivers are up to date. Sticky and Filter keys are off. Any suggestions?

    Thanks!
