On-screen keyboard problem at logon

G

Guest

Is there a way of having the on-screen keyboard come on at logon without having to restart the PC. The problem is that we have a number of users who cannot physically use a keyboard who have there own user names and passwords however when you just logoff, the on-screen keyboard will not come on at the next logon screen meaning that the pc has to be restarted

Help would be greatly appreciated

I think you'd need a third party program to do this and I'm not certain that
would work. In XP the only way I know of to invoke on startup would be to
place a shortcut in the Start Up folder on the Start Menu and that would
only work for first user to boot. Unless someone knows a registry hack to
hardware it in, I don't know of any way to accomplish this.
