How to activate the NumLock key when Windows starts
Here shows you how to activate the NumLock key when Windows starts through registry.
You can do this just by setting different value of the certain registry DWORD.(Windows 2000)
The following are the detailed and exact steps.
- Click the Start button, and then click Run.
- In the Open box, type "regedit" (without the quotation marks), and then click OK.
- In Registry Editor, locate the following registry key:
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Keyboard\InitialKeyboardIndicators
-
This REG_SZ or String value when set to 2 will make the NUMLOCK turn on when Windows loads. A value of 0 will turn the numlock off.
This will make the change for all users. If you want to do it for an individual user, then change the same value in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive
Warning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall the
operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own
risk.
Make sure that you
back up the registry before you modify it. Make sure that you know how to
restore the registry if a problem occurs.
