How do I get NUMLOCK to default to ON in VISTA
I have an Inspiron 1720 with numerical pad running under Vista Home premium When I switch on, it starts with Num Lock off, how can I set it to start with Num Lock ON?
Thanks

You need to go into BIOS and set it to "ON"

If the bios setting has no effect,,
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Keyboard
InitialKeyboardIndicators REG_SZ 0 | 2
Default: 0
Determines whether the NUMLOCK key is on or off when the computer starts. The system stores the state of the NUMLOCK key in this value entry during log off and shutdown and uses this value to restore the state when the user logs on.
Value Meaning
0 NUMLOCK is off.
2 NUMLOCK is on.
