For the past 6 months or so each time I boot up my PC I
have to go to my keyboard properties and change the
repeat delay. I ALWAYS apply it and then hit ok but it
never stays where I put it. It always is set to short
when I boot up and that makes my letters repeat when I
type. Any idea as to why it will not keep my settings
 
Hi Eric,

Not sure what is changing it. Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this
key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Keyboard

After your proper settings are in place, export this key and add this to the
reg file and place it in your startup folder:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoSaveSettings"=dword:00000000

Or try running the stand alone:

Save Settings on Exit (Line 54)

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.
