I have a unique situation.
I have a touch screen desktop computer that does not have an attached
keyboard. I installed Tablet PC to get the on-screen keyboard. Everything I
need works perfectly EXCEPT the CTRL+ALT+DEL.
I get the message to use the security button. I don't have a security button.

I was thinking of using 3rd party on-screen keyboards but then how do I sign
on? The 3rd party keyboards don't start until after login.

HELP!! :-)

Ron

Are you sure you don't have a security button?

What Tablet do you have?

There should be a policy option to not require control alt delete at logon.
try changing (or adding) dword:
DisableCAD=1
under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Generally not a preferred solution, but it should get rid of the keyboard
requirement.

it's not a tablet. it's a regular desktop with a touchscreen.
