    Hey all,

    I got an odd problem. I tried to load XP on my buddys ML3706. I found all the drivers on this forum (thank you), but when I loaded XP, it gave me an I/O error when setup does it 1st setup boot. So I gave up and reverted back to Vista (Poo, but I got 2gb of ram to help it).


    Anyways, It worked fine for me when I was applying all the updates and looking for other goodies to put on it (meaning I searched the web for stuff).


    I gave it back to my buddy and he calls me today saying the keyboard outputs the wrong letter for most of the keys on the right hand side.


    I assume he turned on the 10key function. But how does one turn that off?


    Thanks all!

    There is a Fn key on the laptop, you have to hold this down and find the NumLock key. This will fix it back to the way it was before.
