i moved you out of HP,
the keyboard is bad. it seems.
get it fixed?

The keyboard cannot be disabled as such as to do that would render the system useless.
Check the floppy cable from the keyboard to the motherboard and re boot.

HI there press FN key as well as F7/F8/F9 key. One of the F key mark by touch pad. Just press that by pressing FN key. Thanks.

You have accidentally enabled the numlock, which is indicated by the LED (third on the right) just below the touchpad


It can be disabled by Pressing and Holding FN Key (at the left hand bottom) and pressing Del NmLk as shown here


GoodLuck!
Dont forget to appreciate the solution if I could have been of any help!

I do. Open the Lenovo 3000 N500 Notebook PC, and un-stick it.

You need the Service Manual.
Lenovo calls it an HMM.
Hardware Maintenance Manual

Below is the Lenovo Support link for the download page, for the Lenovo 3000 N500's Hardware Maintenance Manual. The Top file listed is the one you want.

Either the site is updating right now, or Lenovo no longer offers this manual. Clicking on the file does no good.

No big deal.

Copy this link, paste it into your address bar, and press the Enter key.
It's a direct link to the HMM file.

The touch sensors and "volume" button is on the top right corner of the keyboard panel .... above the keyboard keys. press "1" - left most - to mute and unmute press "2" - next - going right - to turn volume down press "3" - next - going right - to turn volume up
or ..
you can press (at the same time) the Fn key and Esc (to mute), Fn key and F1 to decrease the volume, or Fn key and F2 to increase the volume.

Please turn Off the Num lock key.

you should call the lenovo warranty support hotline and check your warranty if you can sent it to the depot to be repair free of charge :)

try this lenovo hotline check if they support the model that your using if not they will transfer you to IBM 18774536686

The mouse pad maybe faulty or the ribbon cable from the mouse pad to the motherboard may not be properly connected. Reseat this cable.
You can connect an USB optical mouse to the laptop. I prefer you use a USB mouse all the time over the mouse pad.
