on screen keyboard

How in the world do you turn off the on-screen keyboard?
The OS is Vista Home Premium. Every time I boot up the system, there it is...
Is there a way to disable, stop, or kill this????

Thanks

Re: on screen keyboard

Thanks for the welcome but this link only shows me how to turn on the on-screen keyboard. My problem ib that it always comes up on the boot up. How do I stop this from coming up?

Re: on screen keyboard

Hi Rosss,

In the tutorial you will uncheck the On-Screen Keyboard box after you click on the Use the computer without a mouse or keyboard link in frame 2 and 3 of the video to turn it off.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
