I have a very strange copy and paste issue.
If I select text, press CTRL+C and then go into word (and some other text editors) and press CTRL+V it just pastes a black oval. If I press CTRL+C twice then CRTL+V then it pastes the text. If I press CTRL+V three times its an oval again.

Sounds like Ctrl+C is being intercepted by some program and not being passed to Windows unless it's pressed twice in a row.

Try it ins Safe Mode, see if it still happens.
