most games (dayz, sandbox games) freeze when walking

[Ayxrion]

ever since i restored my comp to factory settings (comp was slow), and i play sandbox games (like gta and stuff)
when i walk, it freezes. when i let go of walking, my game runs normally.

this happens a lot in dayz, but except it happens constantly. sometimes i can run no problem, but most of the time, holding W, freeze. let go, sounds start playing and my character stops.

any way to fix this? its really annoying :(

It's some stupid windows setting i forget how to turn off. Pretty much windows is repeating the button like 10000 times over. Look it up.

is it filter keys?  that sounds like a stuffty windows setting no one needs.

Sticky keys?

sticky keys deals with the function keys, i.e. shift, control, alt, etc.

FilterKeys is a feature of Microsoft Windows. It is an accessibility function that tells the keyboard to ignore brief or repeated keystrokes, in order to make typing easier for users with hand tremors.
probably

oh boy, i found a new problem
in a lot of games (blockland does this, too)
when i chat, the game freezes while im typing. when i stop typing, it unfreezes and shows all the stuff i typed. its really annoying :(

Same would happen to me so I stopped playing blockland.
