Hi,
i have a little problem with my G80-1000.
The NumLock LED stays on all the time, even when the computer is off. It doesn't matter if the NumLock was active or inactive while shutting down, the LED will always light up as soon as the computer is off.
I don't want the LED to be on all night and all the time when the PC is not even running.
Is there a fix for this? Is this common?

Are you using a USB adapter plugged into a powered hub? This happens to me with my keyboards, where the LEDs are still active when the computer is off because of that. If you're just using PS/2, then I don't know. Sounds strange. I guess power is still being supplied in some way.

I just unplug the keyboard from the hub when I'm done using the computer.

I'm using a 5-PIN to Ps/2 Adaper.
Since this does not seem to be common, I can just imagine it has something to do with the Ps/2 port on my specific motherboard.
