Solving computer problems If the keyboard problem is resolved, carefully reconnect the external numeric keypad, external keyboard, or mouse, making sure that you have seated the connectors properly. If keys on the keyboard still do not work, have the computer serviced. Problem: A number appears when you type a letter. Solution The numeric lock function is on. To disable it, press and hold Shift; then press NumLk. Problem: All or some of the keys on the external numeric keypad do not work. Solution: Make sure that the external numeric keypad is correctly connected to the computer. Problem Some or all of the keys on the external PS/2 keyboard do not work. Solution If you are using the ThinkPad Dock II, the ThinkPad Mini Dock, or the ThinkPad Port Replicator II, make sure that the keyboard cable is correctly connected to the keyboard connector. If the connection is correct, disconnect the cable and make sure that the built-in keyboard operates properly. If the built-in keyboard works, there is a problem with the external keyboard. Try using a different external keyboard. UltraNav problems Problem: The pointer drifts when the computer is turned on or after it resumes normal operation.
