The CMOS say NUM LOCK ON.
When I power up, the light stays lit until just before NT 4.0 completes loading.
Then it shuts off.
Is there any way to control this? [sig][/sig]
 
When does numlock turn off, before or after login to NT?

If before, change the following in the registry: HKEY_USERS\.Default\Control Panel\Keyboard.
Change the value for InitialKeyboardIndicators from 0 to 2

If it happens after you login you will want to change the following in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Keyboard
Change the value for InitialKeyboardIndicators from 0 to 2

0 means to turn off numlock, 2 is to turn on numlock.
