Windows 2000 - Numlock

[Lenfant]

Does anyone know how to turn on the NumLock key as the
default when you boot Windows 2000 up

Thanks

For the current user; set numlock to on, then log off. Windows 2000 will
save your setting.

Windows NT/ 2000 ignores the bios on this issue. Set the Reg_Sz string value
of
"InitialKeyboardIndicators"="2"
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Keyboard
will set the numlock to "On" when no one is logged on. May need to restart
for effect.
