Have been using Vista about 18 months and have never found a cure for this problem: when the computer goes to sleep, the settings for 'repeat delay' and 'repeat rate' are erased. Typing slows down to a crawl, and I have to reset them every time I wake up the computer (I've added a quick link to Keyboard Properties because I know I'll use it at least once a day). Why hasn't there been a fix for this? I know I'm not the only one complaining.

In possession of MEDION Laptop running Vista Home Premium belonging to a friend which went "haywire" Apparantly Delete Key won't work. I was advised on startup it was "deleting everything" - ask if you want to delete but couldn't say no. They restored to 2 weeks previously and said alright for 20 mins then started again.
They use AOL and when this opened when you click anything asks you do you want to delete then just does it..Now I use cable and open in IE7, I find both backspace and delete keys not working i.e type into search or address bar and nither key functions to make corrections. Ditto in Office or Works applications. I'm not receiving any onscreen messages re deleting !(!) Ran virus scan OK ran Spybot and detected RegistryFix among others. Deleted these, reran and appears clean. Is there a hardware problem with Keyboard or has there been a subtle key re-assigment

I opened a folder and because it had multiple repeat messages I clicked on one (I think) to delete it and the whole folder disappeared. I looked in the deleted items folder. It wasn't there. I looked in the Recycle Bin and it wasn't there so I lost all the legit messages I had in that folder.

First of all I would like to say I love this forum if it wasn't for this forum my Desktop/HDtv(as my monitor) would have a keyboard stuck in it. Why you might ask, well I was stuck on "Updates Configuring 3 of 3 - 0% // then Shutdown" and repeat. Also I'm a new Vista owner and so far its been shaky but I plan on over coming it. NOW!, To why I'm here, I keep my desktop empty and use the Dell Dock (Mac style Dock that came with my Dell). I cleaned out and disabled most of the stuff on the startup I don't need. So the problem I'm having is that the Dell Dock is the last thing to load after my antivirus and firewall and spyware programs. My question is, is there anyway to make the Dell Dock load first? Is there anyway to do this even with registry hacking? I want the Dell Dock to load up before most of the other startup programs.
