Turning on Numlock in Win2k using the registry details inside.

[el]

Click Start, Run, then type regedt32 and click OK. In the Registry Editor that appears, select the HKEY_USERS window. Double-click the .Default folder to open it, then open the Control Panel folder, then select the Keyboard icon. Double-click "InitialKeyboardIndicators" label in the right pane, then change the digit 0 (zero) to 2. Click OK and close the Registry Editor. The next time you restart, the NumLock light will be on -- even before you log in. The NumLock state will be preserved on a per-user basis after that.

I found this and thought I would share it with everybody! enjoy

Try this..

HKEY_Current_User\ControlPanel\Keyboard\InitialKey boardIndicators

Type REG_SZ:

If set to 0, NumLock is disabled for that current user after logging on. If it is 2, NumLock is enabled and will retain the settings from the last shutdown.
