LOL<br/>And many thankx in advance......I have about two other problems that I will need help with...this is the easiest one, so I thought Id lay this one out there first.you can turn the numlock on/off through the bios, easier & quicker than reg hack.<br/><br/>if you can't do that for whatever reason, check the reg on one of the computers you changedOk, I didnt <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/go-468886" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GO">GO</a> into too much detail....the old systems are now re-imaged with xp pro, and the bios is showing that it is on, however, as soon as the system boots, and I have to enter a password, the numlock is off.<br/><br/>but thanks for the answerWindows XP - Switching Num Lock On<br/>Windows XP will switch off the Num Lock key when it boots. In some cases it's enough to make sure that the Num Lock key is enabled when you shut down; Windows will remember the status of Num Lock, and enable it on the next boot. In other cases this may not work, and Windows will always default to switching Num Lock off when booting. To fix this:<br/><br/># Start the Registry Editor<br/># Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Keyboard\<br/># <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/double-246357" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DOUBLE">DOUBLE</a>-click the value InitialKeyboardIndicators, and enter 2 as it's Value data<br/># Close the registry editor<br/># Log off, or restart Windows for the changes to take effect<br/><br/>patio. 8-)OK, for all of you out there that dropped suggestions....first and foremost, THANK YOU ALL! It was greatley appreciated in my dark hour of need! LOL<br/><br/>However, I was able to find the following and it helped me out a bit: <br/><br/>HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Microsoft\Input Devices. Right-click on Input Devices, then select New, Key. Name the new key Keyboard. Highlight Keyboard, right-click on it, then click New, String Value. Name it NumLock. Enter ON as the value to turn the NumLock key on or OFF to turn it off.<br/><br/><br/>Yes, a bit more in depth than what I wanted to do, however, it was pretty much the one thing that worked for me. And this time, I did a copy <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/paste-597094" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PASTE">PASTE</a> into a file that we use called "semester Cleanup" for all computers. <br/>don't forget to do a key export so you can keep the hack and just double click it next time Even though my advice fell on deaf ears it still works...</p></body></html> | |
