I just deleted this post as I have sorted it out.

Which kind of leaves me at a loose end as to what I can write insted.

Ummmmm

Just like to say a big hello to all my friends, (and a get stuffed to my enemies), the folks I used to know back in England, to future friends, bob the spaniel, merlin (totsters fish) and anyone else who knows me.

does the same problem apply to all keys, or just backspace?

You can try going into your contol panels for the keyboard.

Control Panels --> Keyboard --> Speed

Adjust the sliding controls to increase speed.

Hope this helps.

I looked at that but it was on maximum speed anyway. Slowing it down and speeding it up again solved it cheers.
