How the hell do i turn numberlock on everytime i start win2k

I have the same problem too. BIOS won't do anything because each time w2k starts it turns it off by default.
 
This is question is asked quite a bit actually. Very simple fix. Next time your about to shut down Win2k, make sure numlock is on. Then next time you boot up it should be numlock should be on. Win2k remembers stuff. Hope this helps.
 
SleepyGuy,

I remember that everytime I shutdown the numberlock is left on. But still it's off the next time I logon.
 
You can enable NumLock so you can use the numeric pad. In the Registry, go to HKEY_USERS on Local Machine\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Keyboard. In the right pane, double-click the value InitialKeyboardIndicators and change the string value to 2 ( the default is 0), as Screen 6 shows. You can also make this change under HKEY_CURRENT_USER, but changing the value for the default profile under HKEY_USERS ensures that NumLock is on for everyone who logs on to your computer.

One more thing, as long as you are logged on as administrator, or a user with admin rights, leaving it on when you shut down should keep this preference.
