It seems that if the user is not an administrator - both are cleared at login. No matter what registry hacks you try, the user is still stuck with these settings.
Finally I found a simple solution the the problem. It is an easy VB script that you call when the user logs in:
To turn Numlock on:
set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.SendKeys "{NUMLOCK}"
To turn capslock on:
set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.SendKeys "{CAPSLOCK}"
Uh. Yea...I didn't think you would even care about scroll-lock, so we wont spend another minute thinking about that waste of keyboard space.
