Modify the Keyboard Buffer Size (Windows 9x and NT)

Occasionally Windows may report an error relating to an overflow in the keyboard buffer. This tweak can be used to increase the size of the buffer, and avoid this problem.


Open your registry and find the key below.

Modify the value of 'KeyboardDataQueueSize' to equal the size of the queue buffer to use, for example 64 hex (100 decimal).

Exit your registry and restart Windows for the change to take effect.

For example, the setting may look like:



(Default) (value not set)
KeyboardDataQueueSize 0x00000064 (100)


Registry Settings:
Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Kbdclass\Parameters]
Value Name: KeyboardDataQueueSize
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)



Disclaimer: Modifying the registry can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. We cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of the registry can be solved. Use the information provided at your own risk.
