How do I toggle the num lock on my dell latitude e5510 laptop?

Just call the dell service centre, they know most about their systems and we can't know your passwords

you will have to contact dell to fix the problem

If you are the original owner of the DELL, telephone DELL, and they can help you with the "power-on" password.

On some models, pressing Fn and F4 key will disable/enable Num lock on latitude.

On some other Dell laptops, a BIOS setup menu selection must be made when turning on the laptop to enable it to work.

first step, make sure the switch on the bottom left front is turned on

9 in a lock light:
Turns on when the numeric keypad is enabled. Turn NumLk off by toggling the key.


You can change it in System Setup. Under Post Behavior heading.
Press to enter System Setup and make changes to user-definable settings. If you have trouble entering System Setup using this key, press when the keyboard lights first flash.

Use the checkbox to enable / disable the Num Lock LED when the system boots.

The factory default setting is Enabled.

Mine does this too, had Dell replace the motherboard and have reinstalled windows and it is still doing it. Has anyone found what the issue is?

purple function key next to the ctrl key
press that down and hold
press the num lock (toggle)
press the scroll lk (toggle)
press white cap lock only
See if any of these change the lighted lock indicator.
I assume that was what you mentioned in a focus of the request

hey
i dunno for a dell laptop but generally for laptop keyboards the extra letters on j , k , l are for numpad. i . e the combination of 8,9,0 u , i , o j , k and l ..make a numpad tht is present on the right in a normal keyboard.

i guess what must have happened in ur num lock would have been ON making the num pad ON and hence u cant access the keys j, k , l directly ..
solution would be to switch OFF num lock (to switch of num pad lock press Fn + numlock present in the f1 - f12 series ) this sould solve the problem ..
