How do I start the on-screen-keyboard during the windows installation process? I need to install Windows 7 and I don't have keyboard, I only have a mouse.

The first phase of the install will not require the keyboard. You should be able to go mouse only all the way until it prompts you to enter a new username and password.
Once you get there click the button in the bottom left corner (highlighted in yellow in the above screen shot) that will bring up the "Ease of Access" menu
Check the box for "Type Without the keyboard". Once you click OK it will enable the On-Screen Keyboard

Great, great, great!!! Thank you Scott.. Man I wish we have all members like you :) Commented Apr 20, 2012 at 20:32
For anyone who don't have some working keyboard buttons and who wants to type during first parts of installation, for example DISKPART commands. You just have right click on one of the listed command and it will appear typed or coppied.
