When I had my del inspiron laptop, the combo of the fn key with a function key turned off and on the numlock. I lol, just tried doing keyboard help and did fn with each function key and I would not recommend that if you don't know what each combo does. I just now accidentallylocked myself out of my comp and it required a password to get back in which I forgot what it was, so I had to use something that is irrevelent to the topic to get back in my ssystem. In short, consult the manual for your system, it should have information on how to turn off and on the numlock key. Don't use keyboard help to be on the safe side.
