IBM Thinkpad. Letters type numbers instead of letters. How do I turn off the Icon in the lid, that looks like a house/arrow with the number 1 in it. [Right next to the CAP Icon]

Greetings, A few days ago i dug up a old laptop that i completely forgot about, and it worked fine in the past. If i'm aware, it's running Windows XP that i pre-installed, however, after charging it, and starting it, this happens: I have attempted pulling out the battery, press the power button...
