I think further clarification is needed....
IT IS NOT A HARDWARE FAILURE. If it was the keyboard would also fail when
swapping (ALT + TAB) to remote desktop (running Win XP). Also when the
malfuntion appears, the logo key hasn't been pressed for a while. (Maybe I
selected the wrong discussion group? But as I am not sure about what causes
my problem, I gave up finding a more suiteable.
HARDWARE:
HP NW8440 mounted in a docking station, running Win Vista Enterprise, all
patched up.
Microsoft Natural PS/2 Keyboard (DK), Driver Microsoft version 6.0.6000.16386

Hello all,.
Since I got my PC upgraded from Windows 2000 to Vista Enterprise, I have had
a problem with the Windows Logo key occasionally become a "sticky key". I
can't put a finger on any sequence that causes the problem, but I finally
found out that I can get the normal keys back by pressing one time at the
logo key. In the set-up I have disabled "sticky keys", so this should not be
the cause.
I have noted that when the sticky logo key is active, and I change to Remote
Desktop (remote computer running XP), the keys are not sticky on the remote.
When I close the remote desktop, the keys are sticky again. Therefor I am
quite sure that the problem is caused by Vista.
Anyone out there that can help me disable this mal-function, that often
occurs in the middle of writing e.g. e-mails (or writing questions to forums
;-)?
Thanks in advance
