Silly little window

HarlanBear

All of a sudden, when I press on Control, Alt, or Shift key I get a little window showing "Ctrl", "Alt", etc. When I release the key the little window goes away. Somewhat annoying and want to get rid of it. I'm running Vista. If I reboot, this little function stops, but really ...

Can anyone tell me how to get rid of this?

Thanks.

Start there. If that doesn't fix it. Just back up into the Ease of Access canter.

Thanks, Jon.

But I have no idea which radio button or box needs to be checked to find the pop-up window. Do you have any idea?

I still haven't figured out how to get rid of the little window that appears when I press Control, Alt and Shift. Here is a screenshot showing the little window and I'm hoping someone can give me specific instructions on how to get rid of it. It does disappear if I reboot. PC with Vista system.

Thanks.

Uncheck them all. In fact, since I dont need any of the ease of access features, I turned most all of them off. These are really for those with poor eyesight.

Thanks, cmason, I unchecked all the buttons and rebooted. So far, so good, but rebooting fixed the issue for a time, so we'll see.
