I am having issues with the speed at which the command line registers my key strokes. The problem began when we switch my computer. On exaple is when I attempt to type 13'-1" the command line registers 13, then steps back and puts '-1" between the one and three, so that  1'-1"3 is what is regesterd on the command line. Also whne I attempt to zoom extents and type z spacebar e spacebar, the second space bar does not register. I have to wait a second and hit the spacebar a second time.


I have unloaded and reloaded autocad, I have also changed out the keyboard and the problem still occurs. Does anyone know of a setting that may be messed up in cad?

no, I have not changed the unit settings. I double checked, and they are set to inches, as they should be. brenth2008-07-15 21:54:38

I would hit up AutoDesk with an e-mail, and let them know what it's doing.

So you have a new computer and now it's acting up right?  Sometimes the graphics card has been known to create problems such as this (as weird as that may sound).  If you have a NVIDIA graphics card, they have drivers specifically created for AutoCAD instead of the standard driver.  I would suggest making sure your new computer has the correct drivers and that it meets the specs required to do the type of drawings you're doing.

I believe you! I have an Nvidia graphics card. and the application setting is set for AutoCAD. 
 
I still have the problem.

hmmm i dont know how to answer your problem but better post the problem to CAD forums too I know the masters can help you
