How to disable the NumLock on a IBM Thinkpad T43

By Vu

For those of unfortunate users of the old IBM Thinkpad T43 there is an annoying feature that enables a numlock on the keyboard.  This should fix most Thinkpads that have numbers on the keyboards instead of the regular 10-key on the right side.

1. Start->Run->Regedit

2. Navigate to HKEY_USERS\.Default\Control Panel\Keyboard

3. Change the value for InitialKeyboardIndicators from 2 to 0.
