I am not computer savvy, and at the bottom of my screen, there is a window opened that says: "zhotkey not responding." What is this, where do I find that key, and what do I do with it? I contacted Verizon, they had it removed for a week, and then it returned again. I have Windows Vista Home Premium, and neither one of the two books I purchased about Windows Vista mentions anything about this key. Thanking you in advance,
I googled this and came up with a lot of entries about this same problem but most link to Vista forums to have your question answered. You might want to join one of those forums to help you with your problem. Good luck!

What type of keyboard are you using? If you are using a multimedia keyboard - where it has the e-mail, internet, music buttons - I would recommend uninstalling and reinstalling and see if that fixes the problem.
Make sure you have a standard keyboard on hand before you do this.

I am using model KV0401 from Gateway, which came with my computer GT5428, Vista Home Premium. It has side buttons, and on the top, might be a standard one.
I did a quick search and saw this: "zhotkey.exe is a process associated with the drivers for Chicony Keyboards. It manages the special key functions such as Internet, E-mail, Volume Control and more."
I never use the special keys, like Media, Mute, Volume, Home, Favorites, Email, Messenger... BTW, I did a search on my own computer and didn't find any such file. You might be able to download a driver for that keyboard that will fix the problem, or you can just get rid of zhotkey.exe. Not sure if that would completely fix the error message, though.

AND HOW DO I DO THAT.......download a driver.......or get rid of the zhotkey. You are dealing with a "computer neonate." Thank you,

To tell you the truth, Kuharai, I am new at this. When you say unistalling and reinstalling, what do you mean> I have two new books, but neither one helps. thank you,
