Press F2 or F1 repeatedly at bootup to get into the BIOS. -- Peter Toronto, Canada XP Pro SP2 x 2/Vista Ultimate SP1 Triple Boot "MCB" <MCB@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:E5006872-351A-4403-B73B-064C777C653C@xxxxxx Quote: > How does one enable NUM LOCK at Logon screen in Vista? |

| | Re: How to Set the NUM LOCK State before Logon in Windows Vista If the NumLock is on when you shut down it will be on when the computer boots up, but only after the user logs on. Also, the HP dv9700 doesn't have an option to turn on the NumLock in the Bios.

| | Re: How to Set the NUM LOCK State before Logon in Windows Vista Thanks for the help. Unfortunately I had already done that. That script prompts for the NumLock choice after login. I don't think it can be done. I've never seen a computer that doesn't allow for NumLock on in my 25 years experience in tech support.
