Almost every time I restart or shut down and turn back on my computer, this strange sound comes up and i get a box that pops that asks about sticky keys. is there anyway I can turn this thing permently off or on so it doesnt keep asking me about it?

the setting for sticky keys is in control panel ,accessibility options.

after opening accessibility options, uncheck the sticky keys box and click apply and ok ,to disable it. or click the settings button to change the settings, if you want to adjust it to the way you want it. may take some experimenting.

if you click the shift key 5 times in a row , that'll bring up the sticky key box, with a sound, if that's what's happening, Control Panel > Accessibility Options > Settings > uncheck "use shortcut" > then hit APPLY, you should be fine. -------------------------- Even after disabling Sticky Keys, the popup can still appear if you hold the shift key down for 8 seconds or more. This is caused by Filter Keys not Sticky Keys. It can be disabled from the Control Panel, Accessibility Options, Keyboard, Filter Keys, Settings, Use shortcut.
