Hold down the Fn key and press NumLk - or similar. Sounds like you've got
numlock on.

You have "num lock" or "pad lock" turned on (pad lock = KEYpad lock)

You're probably better off exchanging it for an abacus...

In the future, post as much information as possible... For example,
make, model, laptop or desktop, etc.

The more info you give, the more info you'll get!
