New typing behaviour with Windows 7.

The typing characteristics have changed.

EG: if I want to type " this does not appear on the screen
immediately but only after the cursor moves on. The same occurs with
other characters.

How do I turn off this feature, and what good is it anyway?

What program are you seeing this behavior in? I'm not seeing it in Windows
Live Mail, Notepad, or Word 2003.

Sounds like you need to check the language you have set.

Where is the setting for such settings, all I can find is English in
USA/England/Australian/ etc. And changing these makes no difference.

It's not windows, directly.
I'd first suspect the USB hardware and drivers. Or perhaps you have a
"keylogger" running, unbeknownst to you.
Is the keyboard on a USB controller that is shared with other devices?
Some BIOS settings may also contribute to your problem, as can the
keyboard. (Wireless keyboards, usually)

I don't have this behavior.

You might look under Ease of Access Center in control panel. There's one
spot to change settings on keyboard and another spot to change settings for
typing and reading. Maybe something in there got set inadvertently.

No it plugs into the motherboard keyboard round socket.


I tried a newer keyboad that plugs into a USB3 socket, but the
behavior was the same.

Is this a new computer that came with Windows 7, or an old computer you
have put Windows 7 onto?

The keyboard driver is suspect. I'm assuming that this occurs in all
applications. There are numerous other possibilities, all somewhat remote.
