Make Num Lock key on at startup 1

[AJB]

Hello,

Can anyone tell me how to make the Number lock key be on at startup by default?

Thanks in advance,
AJB.

Probably in your bios setup. Additional settings. Setting should be numlock on bootup.

It is an option in your bios

1. FIND AN EXECUTABLE CALLED 'LOCKKEYS.COM' AND LOCATE CONVENIENTLY (E.G., C:\)

2. BUILD AN AUTOEXEC.BAT FILE AND INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:

C:\LOCKKEYS CAPS:ON NUM:ON

3. REBOOT AND VOILA'... IT WORKS...

4. YOU CAN USE LOCKKEYS FOR LOTS OF GOOD THINGS, TO LEARN JUST
ENTER (IN DOS AFTER YOU HAVE ACQUIRED THE EXECUTABLE)
LOCKKEYS /?

YOU WILL BE TREATED TO A PLETHORA OF GOOD OPTIONS..

Same advice. Get into the bios. Advanced settings. Numlock on bootup=off. Ed Fair
