Virtual PC 7.0 (#3): Numeric keypad problem; solution

CNET staff

Yesterday, a reader reported an inability to use the numeric keypad on his keyboard with Virtual PC. Lee Neuman was experiencing the same issue and was given the (rather simple) solution by Microsoft tech support: Press the "clear" key on the keypad to enable the "num lock" function. (On Windows PC keyboards, this button is actually labeled "num lock/clear," indicating that this key also functions as a "number lock" toggle, but most Apple keyboards simply read "clear.")
