Hi!
Have you tried different Keyboard models in System > Preferences > Keyboard > Layout.
I have numpad too, for me to Generic 101-key PC is working fine.
Hope that helps!

if you have already started tweeking your os, you might have checked a box that makes your numpad able to move your pointer somewhere along the way. try pressing Ctrl+Alt+Num Lock and see if it turns off whatever is conflicting with your settings.

U sound correct, I didn't notice, my numpad able to move mouse pointer. Can u please tell me how to correct this.
I had done something, but I can't figure out what I done that makes this numpad act as mouse.

Problem solved.
System > Preferences > Keyboard > Mouse Keys
and unchecked checkbox 'the pointer can be controlled using keyboard'
Thanks for help...

This problem just got me about an hour ago; it was very, very frustrating.
Thanks for the solution!

Thank you, from another (solved) victim of that!
AFAIK I did not do anything besides the regular updates...
