I run python 2.3 on Linux os subprocess module and Windows executables 
are not too familiar to me. But according to docs subprocess.Popen() 
should accept both list and string arguments.

Your strings have backslashes so check docs.python.org/ref/strings.html

a = 'disable "@USB\VID_0403&PID_6010&MI_00\7&15E4F68&1&0000'
print a
disable "@USB\VID_0403&PID_6010&MI_00&15E4F68&1&0000

\7 is the ASCII bell so your args may be different from what you think.
