Solved: "Number Lock" Function

laurfar · 31-Oct-2009, 04:19 PM #1

Hi, my keyboard by Logitech has number keys on the right hand side. At some point I messed things up because now when I press the number lock key to unlock the number lock it won't let me type numbers at all even though it displays the words "number lock is off". But if I press it again and it displays "number lock is on" then I can type numbers. Can anyone help me reverse this?

Num lock on means that numbers will be generated when you use the number pad. Num lock off means that the symbols below the numbers will be used. This is expected behaviour and cannot be changed. You can change the state of the Num Lock setting (i.e. whether it is on or off when you start the computer) in the BIOS.

Thanks for your time, sorry I've just never known much about the number pad or keys but am learning
