Different laptops have different ways to perform this.
See if you can find an alternate set of numbers *anywhere* on your keyboard.

They might even *share* keys with some of the letters.

If you find any, enable them with the <Numlock key.
(Look for "Num" on the XL status bar.)

Then see if you have a <Fn key.

Then try <Alt <Fn *and* those alternate numbers.

Post back if you *do* get this to work.

I'd like to know your laptop model and what you did to get it to work.
