Hey guys;
I recently installed Vista on my system (decent rig) after upgrading most of my components. However, I have a VERY annoying problem now.
Whenever I press and hold a key down... after about 1 second the entire computer freezes. The moment I release the key (any key) the computer goes back to normal. Now, this makes most games basically unplayable. As part of my research into the problem, I looked at my computer resources as I was doing this... I noticed that the CPU usage spiked when I depressed the key. Sometimes to 100%... sometimes just to 30%. Now, I may not be as computer savvy as I was 10 years ago, but something tells me a keyboard key depression should not tax an AMD64x2 4800+.
I am at a loss here. Its a standard Microsoft PS/2 keyboard (nothing fancy) and I NEVER had this problem before.
Any ideas?
