The reason why your i_ctrl-y is not working properly can be traced to
$VIMRUNTIME\mswin.vim (lines 70-72):
" CTRL-Y is Redo (although not repeat); not in cmdline though
noremap <C-Y> <C-R>
inoremap <C-Y> <C-O><C-R>
I'd rather use i_CTRL-SHIFT-Z for that function, if I had to use it. Of
course, just commenting out the following line in your "_vimrc" should
make vim behave as you would expect normally (non-windows platforms) :
source $VIMRUNTIME/mswin.vim
Just add a " (inverted commas) to the beginning of the line to fix vim ;-)

I frequently use i_CTRL-Y on my *nix box to insert the character

i_CTRL-E does however work.
