Normally, Windows XP will switch off the Num Lock key when it boots (or powers up).
Once you log in, normally Windows XP retains the state the user left the numlock key. It is usually enough to make sure that the Num Lock key is enabled when you shut down. Windows will remember the status of Num Lock, and enable it on the next boot.
If this does not work, and Windows will always default to switching Num Lock off when booting. To fix this:
1. Start the Registry Editor
2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Control Panel \ Keyboard \
3. Double-click the value InitialKeyboardIndicators, and enter 2 as it's Value data
4. Close the registry editor
5. Log off, or restart Windows for the changes to take effect
