Medion E6221 - Typing & Scrolling Lag

I have a Medion e6221 which seems to suffer from random typing lag.

I've wiped the system and started from scratch, it still happens.

The problem is it doesn't happen all the time, and normally a reboot fixes it.

Im using all the latest drivers, i suspect its probably down to the GFX driver, (15.28.15 3062) but, im using the latest and well, it doesn't happen all the time, just on some random boots.

Has anyone had this problem? or know of a solution?

Might sound rather obvious Super but have you tried another keyboard mate it might be it. The reboots light be giving it just that little power on surge that jolts it into life as we know it then it loses the plot.

Mat be worth doing this http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1538-sfc-scannow-command-system-file-checker.html and this

I would also try reseating the GPU and RAM sticks too mate.

Forgot to mention, its a laptop!

Its strange, its happened a few times and reinstalling the same GFX drivers seemed to cure it, then it would randomly appear again, 2/3/4 weeks later.

Hi there ... Having stated that you have recently done a clean Install ... Did you get the Drivers and software from the Medion website ?... Having done a search for your Model it seems to be a Notebook

 

[ICIT2LOL]

Oops well the specs read custom built and I naturally took it to be a desky - sorry.

of you have the activation code then try this but make sure you download the right ISO version anything with an N in it does not have WMP in it and old means old!! PLus make sure if you have Home Premium you download that not Pro or Ultimate or what.

I prefer the DVD way but the choice is yours

 

[Superleeds27]

Yeah, i used the right media. I used the key on the bottom of the lappy.

I downloaded all the latest drivers, Medion drivers are outdated.

The Drivers are not that old ... I would try the VGA Driver from the Medion website and also the Hotkey software

 

[ICIT2LOL]

As Max says mate not that old try again MEDION - Driver Details

sometimes things do not work first times it is a PITA but the only other option is to contact them direct.

 

[Superleeds27]

Its still happening! :/

Not sure what to ry now!

Hi there .... Did you try the VGA Driver from the Medion website ?.. Also try and explain what problems you are having now ... Is it just random typing problems ?

 

[Superleeds27]

Yeah, i used the driver from the Medion site.

The problem is basically.

Lets say im typing, when you normally type, the letters show instantly on the screen don't they. The problem i have is that i could type a sentence say of about ten words. By the time ive finished typing the ten words the display won't show, it might be still typing out the third word.

Its almost like it's taking 4-5 seconds for it to display a character after typing. The faster you type, the longer it takes for all the words to be displayed.

It's hard to explain really, hopefully that clears it up a little?

This also happens too with scrolling, if i use the arrow keys to scroll, instead of it being smooth, it's choppy and lags.

Many thanks for the detailed info... So does this happen when on the net ? Or in some programs or what ? Also could you fill in your specs please .. The Link below will help with that

It happens on everything that involves typing.

Sometimes it will boot fine and look like its working okay, then can suddenly just start happening!

Hum I wonder would a Repair and Install help any

[Superleeds27]

It happened before though, hence the clean install i did.

 

[maxie]

Hi there ... Yes i know that .. But having done a clean Install should have sorted the problem ... Unless the Install was corrupt ... Did you download the ISO from the net .. Or did you use a Disc for the Installation ?

Well Super I don't know what Max thinks but I reckon a sweep with these might be in order if only to rule out some malware.

Yes totally agree sure wont do any harm

 

[Superleeds27]

I honestly think it could just be a Hardware issue.

Conflicts or something. I've seen a few people mention it on the sainsburys website on the reviews. Ill see if i can get an answer fro Medion.

Ill still try the sweeps, and maybe reinstall again!

Found a bios update rather luckily tbh!

Was hidden away on some German medion site. Seems to have done the trick soo far
