    I have a Vaio SZ650 and whenever I hold down a key on the keyboard (Ctrl, letter, excluding Shift) for about 10 seconds, the computer becomes really slow. The mouse lags, CPU temperature rises, and its activity around 100%, and music skips (if it's playing). As soon as I let go, it goes back to normal. Anyone else have this problem, or know of a way to fix it?
