sendkeys.sendwait doesnt wait

I've been using the sendkeys.sendwait method in my application to right to
another. This works great on some of the systems we have but we have a
couple newer Dell laptops that it seems that the all the keys are sent at one
time without waiting. I've used the process.WaitForInputIdle method in
conjunction with sendwait and it does the same thing.

Example:
Dim test As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("test.exe")
'log in
test.WaitForInputIdle(6000)
If test.Responding Then
SendKeys.SendWait(company)
End If

Is there some other method that might work?
