Someone just suggested that you need more Ram, meaning more Random Access Memory because your typing does not show up right away. This is not necessarily so. I have been having the same kind of problem recently especially when I type in Answers and in one of my e-mail programs and I have tons of Ram -- well certainly more than enough for my needs. One of my thoughts is that we may need a new keyboard but I haven't tested that out yet. By the way, if you can come back, add more detail and tell us how much Ram you have, and what your processing speed is, that would be very helpful. The easiest way to get this information is to right click on the "My Computer" icon and then left click on properties at the bottom of the list. That window will tell you, what kind of system you have, Windows 98, or XP, How much Ram which is expressed in Megabytes -- A nice amount of Ram is 512 MBs and how fast your processor is -- expressed in Megahertz (Mhz) if it is an older machine or Ghz if it is more modern). I know I didn't really answer your question, but hopefully I taught you a few things.

TELL US what PC you HAVE. Processor speed, ram.
What else is running???
In windows, more RAM is key, but there is not enough info to tell you any more than that.
