RMVX forced movement (Vista only?)

I tried searching the forum a few times and found nothing on this.

I've had 2 occurrences now where I found the player being forced to move in one direction no matter what (i.e. even when pressing other directional keys).

I thought perhaps pressing the key the player was being forced to move in would stop them from doing so upon release of the key, but that doesn't appear to be the case. Other buttons still respond like menu, cancel, confirm. It seems to affect menus as well, both in the in-game menu and in battles, disallowing me from being able to select any skills on the right side of the list.

Closing the game, opening a different game, and closing the program seem to have no effect on the issue, but restarting the computer does appear to resolve it (at least for a good while, from what I've experienced). If anyone has experienced a similar issue and has figured out how to resolve it, I'd definitely like to know.
 
What are some of the specifics leading up to this point?  Like player move routes and other events.

EDIT:  It might have nothing to do with VX. I can't imagine any eventing to cause such a problem but perhaps a script could be it.  Perhaps like you said it has something to do with Vista.

This might sound silly but have you tested your directional keys in other games/programs?
