Go to Start button \ Control Panel or Windows Explorer Control Panel, Accessibility Options > Keyboard > and see that none of the 4 checkboxes is marked.

You may also need to check in: Control Panel > Keyboard > Speed tab > See if the Repetition delay slider is towards long.. and slide it towards short..

If none of these suggestions helps; check the link for the know causes for slow keyboard response, and how some users have solved their slow keyboard problem.
