Have already checked for updated drivers and troubleshooted, both to no avail.

    I share the same problem with many of the commenting individuals here. My laptop keyboard stops responding after 1 second of responding, and it stops responding for about a second before it starts to respond again. In other words, 1 second of responding, then 1 second of NOT responding, then responding again, in a cycle and at a very regular pace.

    This issue renders the keyboard very useless. Any external keyboard (including Bluetooth keyboards) works excellently; it's just the laptop keyboard that has the issue.

    I tried reinstalling the keyboard and all its components, uninstalling Norton Antivirus, toggling various basic keyboard settings, starting the computer in safe mode, and installing all the recommended updates from the Dell website. I can't roll back system updates because I just bought this computer, so it has no history. I bought it refurbished.

    Thanks, but this is more of a "hack" than a solution. The usual range of these is 10m, my one is below my desk. Perhaps you had some interference at that spot, not sure.

    More and more I start to think, that this is some kind of software freeze, especially because the symptoms getting worse when you play resource-needy games.

    If it's wireless, get a usb extension cable, and plug the receiver into that so you can position it closer to the keyboard itself. Had a dekstop box on side of desk and the signal from usb port there just wasn't strong enough so quite a delay from typing a character to it's appearance on screen.......this resolved it.

    Hello,

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. It looks like this case is not isolated to just one case, as all the post on this thread seems to be having the same issue after the update. Nevertheless, we would like to suggest a few basic troubleshooting step, so that we can eliminate all the other factors that could cause the issue, before we point our fingers to the update.

    With that being said, I would like to suggest to check for driver updates, particularly with the keyboard and mouse, as a first troubleshooting step. Kindly refer to this link for more information and help regarding driver updates.

    Let us know the outcome. We'll keep an eye out to your response.

    I've done ALL that with the same result. 

    Slow keyboard. practically useless....

    it says I have the right driver.

    Removed and reinstalled anyway.

    Ran all windows updates it would let me run.

    turned off filter keys

    Maybe it's not these people's fault.. maybe it's Microsoft.
