Which makes the current situation even more entertaining..

I´m doomed..

I just put on the num lock on my laptop, and you see what happens next with the letters: absolutely nuffin... I have to press the "FN" button simultaneously with the letter 'I' for axample to get a "5"

Nw when rn n the -adtc ttbn gyt ths (this is typed with the PAD LOCK on and actually reads "Now when I turn on the pad lock this happens", So the Pad Lock button is solely used to translate English into Welsh...)

With BOTH Num Lock and Pad Lock on: this happens: w6th b6th n4+ 36c2 and -ad 36c2 6n th5s ha--ens. This is the LEET SPEEK option of your keyboard, to no use whatsoever for normal human beings with some education.

So I would try to use a special key found somewhere on the lower left of the keyboard, most of the time in a different color (in my case the "Fn" button) and hold it, then press the Num Lock button (most of the time womewhere upper right on the keyboard. Try to type again. If nothing happens, repeat with the Pad Lock key, and afterwards even try it with the Scroll Lock key.

Have fun

Surely that would reset the number lock etc?

Not always...I'm not THAT computer savvy, but I seem to remember you can also turn it on or off in some BIOS systems... So when it is 'accidently' turned on in the BIOS it stays that way when you reboot...

Claire, rule one, never listen to what a boy tells you to do regarding your computer/laptop.

Same thing happened to me yonks ago and all the keyboard needed was a good ol' bang on the table, banging the keyboard upside-down. You can imagine how dirty it must have been, as all shag bits & ash came tumbling out. Do the same with the laptop, it sure worked for me!

Thank you Uli! Hip hip hooray!

You listen to Keith?

Well just remember it for next time!

Howzit uli, so that's you done from lurking then?
Welcome and buckle up and in and around and around.

boudicca wrote:I'm a boring kind of girl

Yeah, I'm sure about that.

And thank you all for the warm welcome.

Very comforting for a lonely guy sitting in front of his computer on a Friday evening. Sniff.
