I have searched Google and tried to find out how to fix it or see if I accidentally pushed the FN key and something else or other keypad # and messed it up. I really need my right click to function. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! :)

Have you tried using an external mouse and if so, is that able to right-click or not? If it is only the built-in right-click button that does not work, it might simply be worn out... I know those IBM laptops seem to be practically indestructable and somewhat "immortal", but unfortunately most electronic (and mechanical) components will eventually fail... I suggest testing with a USB mouse and if that works fine you have your answer. Sometimes it CAN be a stuck key causing right-click to not work properly, but that would probably be harder to fix.
