It's maddening. It works just fine once I reboot but at some point during a given session, it just shuts off for some inexplicable reason.

If the laptop has a physical numlock key, it could be malfunctioning. If it's a function key combo, there may be a way to enable/disable in BIOS. Sounds like a pain. Hope you get it sorted...
