Disabling Repeat Keys

There are a couple of ays to disable keystroke repeat in Windows 7.  One is under Ease of Access in Control Panel, under Filter Keys, but this is actually a pretty complex scheme, and I can't seem to set it identically twice in a row.  Often, I end up filtering out all keystrokes.  Under Control Panel, Keyboard, Speed tab you can slow down repeating dramatically, which works well for me.  I am preparing my Western Civ 2 class right now.
