    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

    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?

    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
