tired of those numpad problems?
This is how you do it.
this is a posting from walter siren but he posted it under a different
subject which probably means most of you might have missed it.

You don't have to do any script writing to take that numpad out of those
numbers.  Here is how you do it.  It is tedious, but you must go through
each number.

1, press insert numrow+6 for config file,
2, press shift+control+d for default,
3, press alt+s for settings,
4, press k for keyboard,
5, press n  until you hear numbers, 
6, start arrowing down to each number, 
7, tab twice to change key, 
8, press the space bar to change it, 
9, Now, type in just the number, and press enter,
10, keep this up until you have finished number 9,
11, tab to ok,
12, press alt+f4, twice,
At one of those times, it will ask you if you want to save changes, then
press enter on yes, and now you will only hear the numbers when you press
the numlock, and start pressing numbers.
