    When did it start? After loading, deleting something?
    Try System restore back to when was not doing this.

    In the Control Panel, under keyboard settings you will find two options that will help you. The first one is Repeat Delay and the other is Repeat Rate. My guess is that your repeat delay is set two short.

    @J&SinKTO : it have problem from the very beginning when I open it from box. I think System restore can't solve ^^
    @Blue05R1 : it's not the problem, even I change delay to very long the problem still persistent. And only these character have problems, the others don't.

    Sony had issues with keyboards from the beginning...I recommend contacting Sony if it's still under warranty or going to your local VAIO repair center.
