It sounds like the computer's sampling rate to the keyboard is faster
than what the program is willing to accomodate.  This might be solved
by going into CMOS Setup and altering the keyboard sampling rate.  I'd
try slowing it down some.

ASCII for cursor right, left, up and down is 1C, 1D, 1E & 1F.  Other
keys have others.  A switch closure for a certain row and column on
the keyboard is picked up when a scanning frequency detects it and
sends the signal to the motherboard.
