Laptop Keyboard?
Hey. Okay, this post I won't be able to break up because of the actual error.. lol. ( I'll try my best to do so with spaces.)
Anyway, earlier I spilt some juice on my laptop keyboard, nothing happened immediately but after about an hour, my enter key just stopped working.. then I flicked it out, and when putting it back in, it was working as it had jammed..and would just constantly press the enter key but the key was placed properly.. I got that to stop working and now it's just not working, I read that I can't just fix the individual key and have to get the whole laptop keyboard replaced? Is this true and how much would this set me back, and were would I go to get it fixed. Would PC World rip me of? I think one of my arrow keys is playing up aswell because it's just sticking (like my enter was, and doesn't actually work..) so yeah, just advice and such please.. |

Re: Laptop Keyboard?
Sadly replacing the keyboard is the best option as I see it. Try eBay, there are many good keyboard there at decent prices. Just look for your model.

Re: Laptop Keyboard?
Ah okay, how much would they usually be about and if I can't find it on eBay what were else could I look at, baring in mind I live in UK and I see your US. :P Also, another question on a similar subject..my left key on my laptop has also broke, same again so I use a USB mouse.. that doesn't bother me too much but would I have to replace the whole touchpad or would they be able to fix it? (They being the IT guys..)

Re: Laptop Keyboard?
I believe there are laptop parts online stores that serve your area. About the touchpad button, that usually is part of the bezel. Re. your question if they can fix it.. i believe so. That too can be replaced.
