I'm also having this problem as well. I have a thinkpad t20 and for some reason, out of nowhere, this started happening. The thinkpad keyboard doesn't have a numpad section.. it's part of the regular keys. When I press "m", I get "0", "p" I get "*". I've tried everything I could possibly find out about this. "InitialKeyboardIndicators" being changed from "2" to "0" doesn't work because it always goes back to "2" after rebooting. Adding a key to another section as suggested from another site didn't work either. My bios doesn't have anything that helps this either. How is this notepad just decided to turn its numpad on and stay like that?
