Is there a setup in WinXP to enable toggle of numlock during startup?
I.E. WinXP starts with numlock on and I want it off.

Thanks.

By default, the NumLock key is turned off as WinXP starts, and keeps it
off until someone logs in and initializes a user profile. WinXP will
remember the NumLock's last state, meaning that if you log out with the
NumLock on, it will automatically turn on the next time you log in; If
you log out with the NumLock off, it will be off the next time you log in.

Go to BIOS and there you will be able to change it.
