it’s likely that you have turned on the NumLock feature that many laptops have. The NumLock feature is used to convert part of the main keyboard to act as a (slightly skewed) numeric keypad rather than letters. NumLock is rarely used for its original purpose, and ends up confusing the user if it has for some reason been activated without the user being aware of this. This can be more of an issue on most laptop computers, since activating the NumLock function typically requires use of the Fn key and if a user accidentally switches it on they may have no idea how to switch it off.

How to Turn Off NumLock Feature?

Find the NumLock key and press it to reverse things and set it back to normal. On my Dell it’s Fn + F4, on my Compaq it’s Fn + ScrLk. It’s different on every make and model. Based on your keyboard you can get original settings of your keyboard in following ways.

Fn + F11
Shift + Num Lock
Fn + Num Lock
Fn + F11 + Scroll lock
Fn + F8 (on HP laptop)
Ctrl + F11
Fn + Shift + Num Lock

Some keyboards have and don’t have the Num Lock key. If there is then just press the Num Lock or NmLk key. Sometimes you have to hold the Fn button with the Num Lock key. If there is no Num Lock key on your keyboard then just follow these steps: START -> ALL PROGRAMS -> ACCESSORIES -> ACCESSIBILITY -> ON-SCREEN KEYBOARD -> NLK.

Find the correct key combination on your laptop and your problem should be solved. If you still can’t log in to Windows, you can use the Reset Windows Password utility to remove your administrator/user password so you can then log on your computer without typing a password. After getting into Windows, you can turn off NumLock feature easier.

Attached is the picture.

This 6930p is two type, one with ATi chip(graphic) and one without ATi chip.

So possible cause could be

1. Bad Ram
2. ATI chip is bad
3. Bios is corrupt
4. It might be a dim display so check with torch light to see if you will notice any display on the screen

Hello faithful gurus in this thread, I have a HP 3115m mini laptop with windows 10. Recently after a successful day use, it surprised me when I switched it on, the next day it gave a continuous breeeeng sound with blank screen and I forcefully turned it off. I turned it on and the same problem happened again and again until I press f11 and a minute later it boots partially successfully. Now when I click a bottom icon on the desktop the icon at the most top is selected instead of the bottom icon I preferred to use. I could see a horizontal shadow line running from bottom to top (up). If I click any tutorial video at the bottom in a folder the top most is automatically selected. For that nothing at the bottom of the desktop either icon or tutorial in a folder work in this situation but when I click on anything at top of the desktop or folder no problem. When I right click to refresh, the horizontal shadow line running from bottom to top become very visible (clear). Please, my masters what can be done to correct this problem? A million thanks in advance.
