Hello everyone,

I have a fairly new (4 months old) Toshiba laptop. Recently (3 days ago), I spilled about half cup of water right on top of the keyboard. I immidiately shut down the whole thing, and let it dry. After 5 hours, nothing was working, so I slept and waited till next day. When I woke up, all the keys started working except the "w, s, l, ." keys. 2 days passed, those keys are still not working. I dunno if it's still wet inside and I'll wait for more days or should I send it to shop to repair?

Note: When I open laptop, it makes a semi-loud squeeky machine noise for about 5 seconds, then goes into windows normally. The "w, s, l, ." keys actually worked for about an hour yesterday, but then went back to non-working. Now they are still not working.

Thanks for any help.
