Windows 10: Number pad on keyboard

I have just switched from an older Samsung laptop to an Asus VivoBook. When it arrived I found that the Zero and the Period/Decimal point are reversed. Since I started out in Accounting many many years ago I am having difficulty with this change. All my life the Zero has been in the middle at the bottom. Is there any way to change the 2 functions?

Unable to enable Number pad in Ergonomic 4000 keyboard

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are unable to use Number pad on the Microsoft Ergonomic keyboard 4000, we will look into this for you. However, please reply with the following details to assist you further:

• Do you see a light glowing when you press the NUM Lock key?
  

You can try downloading the Mouse and Keyboard Center 11 from
Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 and see if you have the option to enable the number pad.

Microsoft Sculpt Keyboard & Number pad

My sculpt ergonomic keyboards and number pads changed performance recently. I suspect some change in Windows 10.

Number keys stopped working regardless of Num Lock state. Calculator, / *, - + buttons work as expected.

On keyboard, the first character typed does not always ppear ==> appear.

Updated drivers, changed batteries, rebooted computer and usb transceiver -- no help.

Using Dell Precision 5520, Win10 -- two months old.

Keyboard and number pad worked until a couple weeks ago.

I have 3 sculpt keyboards and number pads, one at each desk location. Two connect via docking stations, the via USB hub.
All three systems exhibit same issues, so I don't think it is computer HW or the devices.

Please advise next action.
