Hello.
In the laptop there is no NUMPAD so i connected extra keyboard to the laptop and it worked fine.
But after that laptop keyboard is not working but some keys are working.
Why it is like that and how to fix it?

The cable for the keyboard is right elbow the laptops keyboard itself.
If u hit it or pressed hard it might moved the plug out from one side.
edit
Or the more common one is because u plugged a different keyboard u turned on the NUMLOCK
And some of the keys on the laptop are specialised for the NUMLOCK and when's the NUMLOCK is on it will conver them to different keys!
So use your FN + F** to turn it off

Can you access/control settings in the BIOS using the internal keyboard?

You sure your laptop isn't disconnected (this may be a hardware problem) If any software and driver updates don't work and you're sure you've tried everything then by all means get someone to open it up and replug the laptop from within the laptop in again. This happened to me before whereby some keys would work and most wouldn't. it wasn't the driver's or anything and it was the actual keyboard that had come off. Presumably when I dropped my laptop a while ago.
Thanks, and I hope this helped you.

You don't have to do anything, just press FN+SHIFT+NUM.
