Windows? I don't even know. You can type in Japanese on all the PC's sold in Japan, so I never even thought about it. Maybe someone else can answer this.

Is it because that 部 is a special case that we use にじゅうぶ instead of にじゅっぷ?

No, you're going too wild. It's very common to read the "20" part of "20 + counter" にじゅう. Number 20 is pronounced にじゅう, too.
for 1-100,000 部 are these correct:
いちぶん
Why are you suddenly reading it ぶん? 
It's
ぶ.
にぶん
さんぶん
よんぶん
ごぶん
ろくぶん
ななぶん
はちぶん
きゅうぶん
じゅうぶん
ひゃくぶん
せんぶん
いちまんぶん
All correct if you delete all the ん's. (Nicer than saying "all wrong", ain't it?)

-- i've just read a short explanation on when to use いっせん/せん, to clarify, would 10,001,000 be いっせんまんいっせん

Correct. Nice example.
