I have a new IBM microsoft keyboard, but it has "hair trigger" keys which
cause a lot of typos.

Can I reduce the sensitivity?

Please help, Frank
 
Open Keyboard Properties...
Start | Settings | Control Panel | Keyboard |
Speed tab | Fiddle with the Repeat delay and Repeat rate. There is a place
under the Speed tab to do just that

Repeat delay
[[Adjusts the amount of time that elapses before a character begins to
repeat when you hold down a key. To change the repeat delay, drag the
slider.]]

Repeat rate
[[Adjusts the speed at which a character repeats when you hold down a key.
To change the repeat rate, drag the slider.]]

Open Keyboard Properties...
Start | Run | Type or Paste: control main.cpl,keyboard | Click OK

Hope this helps. Let us know.
