Why can't I type anything the lights for number lock is on?

If you have pushed the number lock to turn it off and it won't respond, there may be something under the key impeding it. Do you eat over your keyboard. Any computer repair person will tell you that is the most common cause of ineffective keys. If you have one of those little keyboard vacuums, you should use it. Otherwise, remove your keyboard from its connection, turn it on edge and tap it firmly on a hard surface. This should dislodge any debris that has lodged under keys.

What are the parts of keybord?

The modern PC keyboard includes a control processor and indicator lights to provide feedback to the user about what state the keyboard is in. Depending on the sophistication of the controller's programming, the keyboard may also offer other special features. The processor is usually a single chip 8048 microcontroller variant. The keyboard switch matrix is wired to its inputs and it processes the incoming keystrokes and sends the results down a serial cable (the keyboard cord) to a receiver in the main computer box. It also controls the illumination of the "caps lock", "num lock" and "scroll lock" lights. A common test for whether the computer has crashed is pressing the "caps lock" key. The keyboard sends the key code to the keyboard driver running in the main computer; if the main computer is operating, it commands the light to turn on. All the other indicator lights work in a similar way. The keyboard driver also tracks the shift, alt and control state of the keyboard.
