Hi,

I have an IBM laptop, and all of a sudden when I type it prints out numbers and not the letters. I believe there is a keystroke that I may have accidentally pressed. Does anyone know how this can be fixed?

Thank you.

Find the Fn key (sometimes in blue with F), hold it while pressing NumLock. See what happens.

Thinkpads of my memory (last 10 or so years) are

Shift+ScrLock = NumLock (It should have NumLk writen on the key in superscript)
