HP Pavilion g6-2235us laptop - Need keyboard driver

I have an HP Pavilion g6-2235us laptop that I purchased last week. I deleted some programs and thought that maybe I messed something up so I did a "Factory Restore" off the DVD's I created on the day I got the laptop. Now my numeric keypad at the right side of the keyboard no longer works. When I try to turn on the "num lock" key nothing happens, so this portion of the keyboard is useless.

I've tried to search HP's site with no luck. Is there any chance someone here will know the trick?

When I go into control panel it says I have a standard PS/2 Keyboard but is that correct? I don't find a keyboard driver for this model on HP's site.

What's the trick to make it work. Thank you!

UPDATE - I'm trying to type numbers remotely (into a spreadsheet at work) with Teamviewer 7.0 program to get me connected to work. I can type numbers with the keys above the alpha keyboard, but not the keyboard on the right side of the laptop. Then I tested using the key pad on the right to type numbers into a Word document on the laptop and it works fine. So can I use the keypad on the right to remotely type numbers? Also, shouldn't a light be on or something when I click "Num Lock" on the keypad on the right? Finally, does it make sense that Control Panel would say I have a PS/2 keypad.

I called HP and they said that there should be a light that turns off/on when Num Lock is pressed. So did reinstalling the factory restore do something that has disabled that light? I guess the reason the laptop won't type numbers in a remote spreadsheet is the fault of Teamviewer (that's what I'm guessing).

Keyboards typically don't need a special driver, and yes it's possible that they've connected the keyboard via PS/2 interface.

From the manual:

num lock key

Controls the function of the integrated numeric keypad. Press the key to alternate between the standard numeric function of an external keypad (selected the factory) and the navigational function (indicated by the directional arrows on the keys).

Even with the num lock off, the keys should still do something. Test if you can use them as directional keys (up, down, left, right, pg up, pg dwn, etc.). The Enter key should always work as an Enter, with Num Lock either off or on.

Also, I don't see in the manual any indication of a Num Lock light.

The manual does indicate a power light, caps lock light, wireless light, mute light, and touchpad light, many of them built into keys, but doesn't mention a num lock light at all. it's weird.

The service manual states that the keyboard is part number 699497-001, which I found pics of on this auction:

Can't really tell which keys have lights built in on it though.

That manual is great - on page 13 it says Component - speakers, Description - Produce sound

Yeah, looking at it, you can clearly see the light built into the Caps Lock key. Looking closely, you can just make out the smaller lights on the mute and wifi keys. However, there doesn't appear to be any light built into the Num Lock key.

OP, try THIS and see if it works for you.
