I want the Num Lock to be on when my Windows XP starts up. But it wont.
When the computer starts up, first, the all three Lock lights are dark. Then Num turns green. After its done showing the Windows XP screen, all three lights suddenly turn on, then turn off. They stay off.
I went in the BIOS and made sure Num Lock was set to ON. It didnt affect anything
A guide told me to go to the BIOS settings and set InitialKeyboard to 2. I did that. It didnt affect anything
I dislike Numlock with a passion p:unch:: I wish they would make the keypad just an 8-directional key, instead of stuff already easily located in other areas stares down num lock
Press it when you boot up. I know what you want is possible (it’s auto-on for me) but it’d probably mean messing around with some wacked-out crazy shit.
Strange.
Windows XP isn’t supposed to override the settings in the BIOS. Do what Jakanden said, but be careful: Making changes directly in the registry isn’t without it’s dangers.
