three options:

1. call toshiba and replace the internal keyboard

2. use an external keyboard

3. holding alt and pressing 0,1,1, then 2 gives you the letter p.

With those keys, check and make sure that your numlock isn't turned on.

It sounds like you have numlocks enabled. You should be able to disable that with the "FN" key something like the "FN" key and "F11" at the same time. If you notice all the keys you call out have a small white designation on the front edge of them. You can toogle that key to do that function with the "FN" key.
