    Hi All!! I'm a first time buyer/user of an ASUS laptop and am experiencing problems with the keyboard. For some reason, while typing, the laptop doesn't always read every single keystroke and it is not isolated to any one key on the keyboard. I can hit any key and the laptop will read the keystroke, but if I happen to hit it again a few keystrokes later, it does not read.

    Has anyone else experienced similar issues? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    This is a widespread problem, with many solutions.

    The most common and easiest solution is to uninstall your touchpad drivers. You will lose functionality, but it should fix the lag.

    Some other users also had success with updating their BIOS.
