Windows 8 Keyboard Repeat Rate Resetting on Wakeup

I have just gotten a new PC and I am very happy with it! However, whenever I open the computer from sleep, the keyboard repeat rate has reverted to the default. The default for windows 8 is hellishly slow, and thus I would like to not have to change the setting every time. Already checked all of the filter keys stuff, and it is still too slow, and that does not help.
Thanks for the suggestions!

There is a bug in Windows that causes that behavior. To fix it follow these instructions:

1. Download NirCmd


2. Put nircmd.exe in your Windows folder



3. Open Task Scheduler


4. Create new task and name it as you wish


5. Crete new trigger with these settings: (Begin the task: On an event, Log: System, Source: Power-Troubleshooter, Event ID: 1)


6. Create new action with these settings: (Action: Start a program, Program/script: nircmd, Add arguments (optional): execmd mode con: rate=32 delay=1)


7. In Conditions tab uncheck "Start the task only if the computer is on AC power)
