This one should be easy:

I have a laptop (Vista Home Premium) that has a number pad built in. How do I make it so that Num Lock is enabled at startup?
Don't mind me, I'm just lurking.

Great fix garmanma. Also, I have to say that between your avatar and your pic in your signature, I LOL every time I read one of your posts.
