[SOLVED] Keyboard - "Enter key Problem"

RoboMonkeyManv1 · 04-25-2008, 08:05 PM

One day ago, I noticed that my keyboard was very messy inside with crumbs, dust, etc. So I removed all of the keys, vacuumed it, use an air compressed can, and re-inserted the keys. Today I noticed that whenever I press "Enter", then right after that, the character "\" appears. I'm thinking that since the "\" is right above "Enter", then it is also being pressed somehow. I tried re-inserting the keys, but that doesn't help. Thanks for reading, and post if you have a tip or solution. Thanks, much appreciated.

Please tell us what kind of keyboard you have. Laptop or desktop? Make and model?
