You have enabled your laptop's numeric keypad function. Review the
manual that came with your computer for how to toggle this function off
and on or go to the computer mftr.'s website for your specific model
machine. On my Thinkpad the key combination is Shift+ScrnLck, but yours
may be different.

Do you have a NumLK or Num Lock button? If so, press it again.
