Well, you CAN set that in the BIOS. So when it starts up, you might
want to hit the key for Setup and make sure that it's not set to turn
it off at startup. Although I'd think that you could hit the NumLock
to get it started again.

But this really isn't an OFFICE question. You should post this
question to one of the Windows groups.
