SC2 - Terrible lag when shift-queueing

I've been experiencing some crazy lag whenever I use a shift-queue command. My game seems to freeze for 1 up to 3 seconds (or respond really slowly for a short time), while this is happening I sometimes hear a random beeping noise that goes on for about 10 seconds.

For instance when I'm holding shift to spam infested terrans with an infestor, or when queueing a lot of move commands.

It also happens when I try to add more units to my selection by holding shift. The more units I add this way the more lag I seem to be getting. If i select all my units at once I don't get any lag at all.

Is there anything I can do to fix this?

As far as I can remember shift-queueing worked fine for me in the beta.

By the way it has nothing to do with windows sticky-keys, I have them disabled and the beeping noise I'm hearing is nothing like it.

Is it only in starcraft 2 that you get this? If you go to desktop and just spam shift+right click do you get any problems? Try in other games as well in case it's a directx issue.

There might be a slight (less than 1 second) delay when i hold shift and select a bunch of shortcuts and then some more. However it's nothing like in sc2 with the freezing lagging and beeping. Other games appear to be fine.

I'm having the exact same issue...sometimes when quickly queuing commands the queuing locks up and sometimes starts to beep for each additional command you try and place.

could be windows' "accessibility keyboard shortcuts". try pressing your right shift-key five times in a row quickly when on your desktop. this should pop up a window where you can deactivate all these nonsense "accessibility keyboard shortcuts" which are turned on by default - you won't need them ever anyways.

edit:

By the way it has nothing to do with windows sticky-keys, I have them disabled and the beeping noise I'm hearing is nothing like it.

gah sorry didn't read this at first, but maybe disabling these "sticky-keys (accessibility keyboard shortcuts)" will help someone anyways.
