Sounds like your computer is set up to use an Numeric Keypad . It is not a problem if your keyboard has a separate set of keys but a nuisance if its like yours and mine
Go into your Bios (F2)and look for NumLock in mine its under BOOT and make sure its set to OFF
That should stop the K = 2 etc
You may have another problem in that in spite of you setting the Keyboard to UK English it defaults back to USA English .
A simple way to check this is to type an @ if it shows as a " its set as USA layout
You then need to go to ---Settings > Keyboard Input Method >Input Method >(Tick Box) Customize Active Input Methods >(Click) Select an Input Method > from list select English > Follow arrow (Rt) select UK extended Win Keys. This then appears BACK on Input method screen . All that's required is press the + button to add it to the list.
Finally you can if you do not need the USA English highlight its entry and press the X button to remove it .
