    Someone had the similar problem and if my memory serves me correctly, it had to do something with FN. Seeing as the buttons U,I, and O on my Dell Inspiron 6400 also has a 4,5,6.. it's your FN.

    Try to hold the FN key down and type the letter or hit it and try to type the letter, whichever works.

    press not [numlock] alone, but [fn] + [numlock] ...
    also maybe you have external keyboard attached? deattach it then and check keys on thinkpad without it.
