I tried options 1, 2, 3, and 6 options above, and had no benefit. I found another website that suggested - if a person is using a wireless keyboard - the likely problem is the USB dongle is too far away from the keyboard. I moved the dongle from behind the PC to a USB port at the front of the PC, which moved my keyboard about 18 inches closer to the USB dongle that was plugged into my PC. It solved my problem.
