I'm not sure if I am in the right place here but I did something and not sure what nor how to reverse it either.  I changed something in the users part of my laptop and now when it boots half the icons don't show, the favorites are pretty much wiped out and when I hit the i key it types out as 5.  How, oh, Please how do i get back to where i was?  TY

That does'nt help much i'm afraid.
Without knowing exatly what you've done,i'm just guessing here.

Try the following:
Click on Start/Control Panel/User Accounts.
Under "or pick an account to change" is your original user account present or not please.
If it is indeed present click on it,then click on "Change the account type".
If the account is set to "Limited",but should be set to "Computer Administrator",click to select "Computer Administrator".
Then click on the "Change Account Type" button at the bottom.
Follow any prompts,restart your pc when you've done.

Sounds like you enabled the 'numeric lock' on the keyboard

I'm wondering if you created another user account by accident.
