For a bit now when I type something out on my laptop the letters and spaces will not show up right away.They are delayed by a period of time that is really irritating.How do I get it back in sync?

Or you are running low on pagefile space / virtual memory.

Try running a defragmentation program to clean up your hard drive.

Check that you do not have lots of other programs running at the same time.

You may also have updates installing in the background when this 'slowdown' occurs.

see if you still have the same problem in Safe Mode with Networking. if you do, i'd scan for viruii and spyware. if you need help with that, i suggest you post it as a new question. if you need help getting into safe mode, post that question or consult your Windows Help.
hint. restart pc from cold off and after post beep, tap f8 on keyboard until black starup menu is reached. select safe mode with networking
