Everytime I try to log into Windows 7 Pro on my laptop. The "Ease of Access" dialog pops up as I am typing my password, and the letter I am typing when it pops up is not entered into the password field. I have tried going into the Ease of Access control panel using the Administrator account, turning off all Ease of Access features, clicking "Change Administrative Settings" and checking "Apply all settings to the log on desktop."
This does not solve the problem. Is there an OFFICIAL way to COMPLETELY disable Ease of Access? I have seen some apps that claim to replace system files to get rid of it, but I'd prefer not to go that route. At this point, I shouldn't have to for something that is clearly a product defect that people have been complaining about for a while in Vista.
Thank you for your assistance.

This is a HP problem. When connected to a remote device or server, once you go back to your local desktop or lock the pc while using the remote desktop, HP PC's will act as if the windows button is being held down, this causing any key shortcuts to act, "WIN+u" being easy of acces shortcut.
did you ever get this resolved??? have you been able to maybe try a diifferent hard drive ? or if you clean installed windows i am sure you should easily resolve the issue ,also do please makesure to backup all your files and add to your new installation :)
Good morning every body,
I had the same problem yesterday and i fixt it, if you are using a remote desktop just go to task manager and choose users then choose your user and logoff, and connect again to your RD and it's OK.
Thanks for the tip. Win + T worked for me.
This also happens if you have an active RDP session open and then lock the computer! I now make sure there are no active RDP seesion on screen. i.e. I make sure I minimse them to the taskbar before locking the PC.
Spot On - Thanks
