Numblock

Asussertown · Nov 17, 2003

I have XP pro and an MSI motherboard.
At some point my numlock quit working automatically. I checked the bios.
Anything else I can do?

That means the repair does not work.

Try this:
Numlock doesn't reflect these setting during the logon phase because at that
point, NT is using the .Default user profile since it does not know which user
is logging on. Make the same changes to HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control
Panel\Keyboard if you want the numlock state to be consistent throughout.
Name: InitialKeyboardIndicators
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 0 NumLock disabled for current user after logging on
Value: 2 NumLock enabled and will retain the settings from the last shutdown
