The new login screen is just something i've downloaded and installed using "login loader" it is a small programme which replaces the default login windows login screen with cool ones you can download. my tablet is a toshiba portege p3500 convertable tablet/laptop and when windows xp tablet edition loads it automatically loads an on screen keyboard thing at the login screen which i dont want ....how do i stop it???? :-)

It's not a wise idea to disable, because if something goes wrong with your
keyboard connection then you're hosed.

That's true of any laptop though. More likely for the digitizer to go than
the keyboard. :)

Would be a pain though. There's a way to stop it by renaming an exe but I
don't know off hand which one.

Renaming a system file would result in Windows XP replacing it on the next
boot, or could cause the computer not to boot at all.
