Why does Windows 7 have typing problems?

When i type on the internet or on games, I often open new tabs or open other problems, simply by typing.  Sometimes what I'm typing will get erased, filled in with something else, or just won't get typed at all.  I was told this is a Windows 7 bug.

    Be sure that all the "machine" drivers are up to date and are Vista or Windows 7 compatible. Just takes one to mess this stuff up.

    This is not a Windows 7 issue. I run it at home on three diffrent pc types (1-desktop, 2-Laptops) and on a number of PCs at the office with no trouble what so ever. We live on these machines. Conflicting software, out of date drivers, possibly a bad MS update or even maleware or a virus, hard to say. But Windows 7 is stable. Looking into it further.

    The best anti-virus and anti-malware will fail to stop everything. I recommend you stick with one anti-virus to prevent a conflict with them. However, I run 3 anti maleware  to help cover the bases. Always take the time to update all of these to be sure to get the best possible protection. I do so weekly but should do it daily. Some will allow auto updates others will not. I'll gather a short list of the ones used in my office and post it shortly.

    Last time this happened to me I was on my laptop and the keyboard had been misaligned. I had a tech friend remove and reinsert the keyboard and the problem was gone. I'm catching up on what bugs are out there and will respond further when I can.

    Clean re-install no help... Next laptop will be an Apple. M/S not help what-so-ever.
