numbers rather than alphas

Running laptop Dell Inspiron 2650 - not the one I'm using now. I try to type alphas - for example: i and get a 5, u and get a 4, o and get a 6, j and get a 1, k and get a two and so on. I look at the keyboard and the numbers are in small type right in the center of the alpha key.

How do I get back to the alphas only?

Thanks,

Your keypad is activated. Look on your keyboard for the Fn key, then on your keyboard for a symbol that looks like a "number keypad". It is normally the Fn + F11 key, but without looking up the information on your system it may differ. To activate and deactivate, you have to hold the Fn key and press the key that has the number pad on symbol on it.

I just did a quick search and seems Dell likes Fn + F10 for Numeric Keypad.
