How do I get my calculater on the right of my keyboard to work? My numbers
along the top only work. Know it must be settings but as I am new to this I
mdon't know how to change them.

Calculator? Unless you have a special keyboard, that's not a caculator. I'ts
just a numeric keypad, duplicating the numbers above the letters. The
NumLock key is a toggle for it. If you press it once, it works as a numeric
keypad, but if you press it again, it becomes an extra set of arrow keys.
Personally, I only use it for numbers, so keep NumLock on.

Most people find that if you're typing a combination of letters and numbers,
for example an address, the keys above the numbers are easier to use. But if
you're entering all numeric data, for example in a spreadsheet, the numeric
keypad is easier. But the choice is yours.

You mean the nubmer pad? There's a key labeled NUM LOCK, that toggles
between using the numbers, and the other things (pg up, end, etc).
