For whatever reason Windows 2008 and Windows 7 has a bug that causes the Num Lock, the Scroll Lock, and the Caps Lock to turn off without the users permission. The following link is to a free download to an application called NumLocker that several of our customers have found useful: http://numlocker.en.softonic.com/ (NOTE: This site may or may not be 100% spyware free, so be sure to download it from a PC, and then transfer and run the file from the server to install it).
How to use Num Locker

Download and install the application.
Right click on the quick launch icon (that looks like an Orange Capital N in the in the bottom right hand corner of your screen)
Click whichever Lock option you want and enable the 'always on' option.
