USB Keyboards Input buffer

When playing games like FarCry or UT2004, I occasionally experience a lag-like effect.

I am very sure that this is due to the USB keyboard I'm using. If I hold down W to move foreword, and then let go, while pushing a few other keys, i will keep moving forwards (or sideways, backwards, trigger stuck on, etc.)

It seems as if the buffer for USB input is limited or slow to respond. If the buffer is very full, my computer will beep to signify a full buffer. (like it does if you hit DEL too many times to get into the BIOS or something).

Anyone have any suggestions?

I have some USB to PS/2 converters, but they came from logitech MICE, so I doubt they'll work for this keyboard.

It's the CoolerMaster Aluminum flat key keyboard. USB only as far as I know.
 
2 things immediately come to mind:

1. try a different USB port
2. look for an updated driver
