Problems with keyboard stuttering/lagging.
Hello! I have been member for many years and not sure if I ever posted. I have always found help I need via search.
With that said I have had a intermittent problem for about 2 months. I play online games and I use the "W" key to move forward and I noticed that my character was stuttering, like lagging. I thought at first I was experiencing packet loss or bad connection. I did trace routes to my server ping tests etc and have concluded it is not my internet causing this.
After a while of this I started doing tests. I made new text file on my desktop and held down the "W" key and noticed every so often it stopped for split second, (after 10-15 "W") then continued, some times it does it a lot (every 3-5"W") and other times it would less. I tried other keys and they did it as well so it wasn't a wore out key.
I started with the usual of switching the keyboard to another computer and it did not happen on it. I tried another new keyboard and it also did it, again intermittent. I have updated my USB drivers, used drivers from my motherboard web site, let windows install/update drivers. Tried removing and reinstalling, tried using different USB ports, problem remains. I have done trouble shooting in windows 10. I have tried DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and sfc /scannow followed by reboot. I tried the ease of use>keyboard>filter key toggle. I even formatted and reloaded windows again and it was fine for few days, then started again. I have open resource manager and held several keys down and watched my CPU, ram, disk, etc for spikes, nothing. All drivers are up to date.
I hope someone can help me track down what is causing this. Thanks!
