I have asked this before & have had no useful replies (telling me to upgrade
to Windows 7 is *not* useful). When my computer goes to sleep, the keyboard
settings for 'repeat delay' and 'repeat rate' are erased. Typing slows down
to a crawl, and I have to reset this every time I wake up the computer. Is
there a fix for this? I know I'm not the only one complaining

How do you know?

Here's an idea: don't put the bleeping thing to sleep!

Two suggestions...

1. At least in the old days, there were also setting in some BIOSes for
these.

2. Probably a silly question: did you reboot after changing the settings
and before sleeping?

Maybe later I'll see what my computer does.

I did the test.

My computer remembers the setting through sleep. No reboot needed.
