I was a bit curious about this, as I had sold a few Vostro's a few months back, and recall them having that strange delay when typing.
It was good to see there was a "solution", so if my clients complain, at least I can fix it!
I would suggest, though, to the moderators, that the sticky that is referenced be changed so the first or second message of the thread contain the latest up-to-date info for a fix. Do we really need to read through 11+ pages just to determine what may fix it and that Dell hasn't really figured it out yet?
WOW! Thank You Jeff!!! This worked like a charm. What a difference, now if I can get my sound card to work my little laptop just might be back to normal again.
Glad I could help with the keyboard lag. Sorry, I don't know what to do about he audio problem.
Just wondering, is this a new notebook that come with these problems, or have you had it for a while, and the problems just developed? I seem to remember having the keyboard lag problem from the start.

Here we go again ;-)
See the sticky thread at the upper half of the first page of this forum section called "New Vostro 1500 laptop keys hestitate" or click here: http://www.dellcommunity.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=insp_general&thread.id=257203
Basically what it will tell you is to disable the loading of PCMservice.exe that occurs when booting up.
I can't believe tech support is still clueless on this.
