    Sony Vaio VGN-FZ290 keyboard - drops the "G"

    I've had this Sony Vaio laptop for several months and from the start, whenever I get typing quickly, the keyboard will drop the "g" from the end of words. I don't believe it does it for most other letters.

    It's a real pain when I'm at a conference as I'm typically blogging and it turns "blogging" into "bloggin" and "working" to "workin". This makes me look like I'm just using slang throughout my posts.

    It does not happen for my wife, who types considerably slower than me. So I've basically had to give the laptop to her.

    Any suggestions? I've tried changing one or two of the regedit values in "Accessibility > keyboard response" but nothing seems to help.

    Thanks.
