In case you're still launching Xy with numlock on, two DOS programs were posted (I think) on this list a while back that might be of use (sorry, I can't remember their provenance). You can run the relevant one in startup.int (e.g., [BC] do [PATH] numlkoff) and you'll be configured the way you want in Xy no matter what the BIOS setting might be. ≪NUMLKOFF.COM≫ ≪NUMLKON.COM≫ Peter Brown pbrown@xxxxxxxx Jane Van Tassel wrote: > > >this hideous install program has issues with numlock. > >Or maybe it was the KBD file that did. > > Maybe; but my new Dell PC defaults to NumLock when you boot it up, and it > did so straight out of the box, long before I'd installed any version of Xy > (or NotaBene).

If Dells work anything like Gateway, during the bootup there is probably at some point where you get a prompt like PRESS F2 FOR SETUP or somesuch.Attachment: NUMLKOFF.COM
