Odd. My Control Panel menu has it. I just never noticed the "Speed" tab and always ended up in the "Mouse and Keyboard Center" default, so I missed being able to change the auto-repeat delay.

Thank you. That 10-second delay (OK, more like three quarters of a second, but it seemed like 10 seconds!) was driving me crazy.

Hah! I made the computer store put that shortcut down in my taskbar before I even brought the computer home!
