If it didn't help you identify the number lock key on the right part of the wireless keyboard, I recommend using the below steps to enable Number Lock with the On-Screen Keyboard: Click Start, type on-screen in the search field, then select On-Screen Keyboard from the search results list.

1) A problem with the computer's BIOS, check your computer manufacturer's website to see if there is a System BIOS update. Do not attempt to do a system BIOS update unless you are an experienced IT person. We are not responsible for any issues that may arise and cannot assist with the installation of the BIOS update.

The Keyboard and Numeric Keypad's Numlock feature work completely independently of each other. Do not attempt to plug the keyboard into one of the USB ports located on the sides of the USB keypad, as these ports are intended only for low power devices, like mice, USB memory sticks, or powered USB devices.
