my computer keeps alt tabbing out?

Question

any time im in a game it alt tabs out like every 20 to 40 seconds. this also happens with any other windows/programs. ive rebooted many times and and scanned my computer for anti virus with norton and spy bot. ive also defragged a few times. earlier when i asked this, someone told me to uninstall the driver for my keyboard but that didnt work after a reboot. i never have food or drink by my computer so its less than likely that ive gotten something in there. any help plz?

Update:

ive tried doing all the things in this answer but it still happens.

To me it sounds like you have other software running in the background that wants constant attention.  Before you start your game, open the Task Manager (Control-Alt-Delete and select it.)

First look under programs and see what is running.  Close anything you don't need running now.
Next select the processes tab.  Look for something that is using a high amount of memory or processor time, but is something you either don't recognize or just doesn't need to be running.

If you notice this all the time, fix your autostart programs so they are not always running in the background when you start your PC.  

To do this, go to RUN and type msconfig

Under the startup tab, uncheck programs that you recognize.  These do not need to run each time you boot.  Be careful not to uncheck something just because you don't recongnize the name.  It could be something important.

Good luck.
