Bought a little Netbook off Dodo for a good price (or so I thought at the time)
It has a cpl of problems:
A. battery is docked and locked but can still only use it if it's connected to the power source.
Says "100% power but not charging."
B. on the QWERTY bar, the U, I, O, P Keys also double for 4,5,6, and asterisk in square brackets. Same goes for J, K, L on the next row.
Where I try to use the Alpha keys I always get the numerical. For instance, where I type Friday, it comes out as Fr5day.
see pic:
Is there a toggle I should be using?
Solved! Go to Solution.

A quick google found this:
How do I enable or disable Number Lock on my Acer Aspire One netbook?
To enable or disable Number Lock on the Aspire One, press and hold the Function (Fn) key and press the F11 key once.
The Number Lock indicator will light up when the Number Lock is enabled and will be unlit whenever the Number Lock is disabled.
Note: With the Number Lock enabled, the number pad on the keyboard will be enabled and the letter keys with blue numbers printed on them will type the numbers instead of the letters.
There is an option to choose a different model.

Icy, have you tried to google for a manual for your particular Notebook?
I have no idea how to help otherwise.

So why not complain to Dodo? Battery should be charging.
Useless if you have to be connected to power all the time

or fn + numlock if your keyboard has them
Those fn keys causing trouble again?
I C&Ped the question into google and it came with pendo...aka, cheap garbage. When it comes to electronics the saying, you get what you pay for, is true.
