Could somebody suggest where do we change the settings
for the Number Lock to be ON or OFF when the Windows
startup. I tried changing the Bios of the computer but
that does not have any effect.

Thank You
Kishor

Hi,

Go to: Start/Run/Regedit

HKEY CURRENT USER\Control Panel\Keyboard\
InitialKeyboardIndicators

0 = numberlock off
2 = numberlock on

If you want the numlock on at the welcome screen you also need to change:

HKEY USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Keyboard\
InitialKeyboardIndicators same number values as above.

Or...

Set Numlock State On or Off at Startup (Line 4)
