The key you have enabled is NumLk/ScrLk key. When enabled you should have the symbol (arrow with a 1 inside) lit up. The led light indicator is to the left of the power button on most T-series think pads. To enable/disable press the (shift key)+(Numlk/ScrLk key)to enable or disable this function. The (Numlk/ScrLk key) is normaly inbetween the PrtSc and the Pause/Break key at the very top of the keyboard and just to the right of round power button. Hope this helps. Andy
