I spilt some coffee on the lptop keybord & now my '<span class="smalltext">a'</span> key doesn't work (just copied & psted) </p> IS there @ w@y of fixing individuel keys?</p> Sorry for the spelling, kind of difficult spelling things without tht letter!</p>
that post is full of typos, you ought to be ashamed. Here's a few a's for you to use freely. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Happy to help.
RE: unplug it and stick it under the tap for a few minutes Lol kidding right?</p> Either w@y, it's @ l@ptop so th@t wouldn't work @nyw@y</p>
I wasn't kidding, keyboards under the tap normally cures the old coffee spillage but you're right, I wouldn't try that with a laptop. If you know how to you could open the laptop case, remove the keyboard part and just wash that key to remove the stickyness.
How about Inventing a microscopic robot and sending him in with a dishcloth and tea towel? or her obviously. But I'd go for inventing a male one, as the females will be banging on about maternity rights before you know it.
The best thing to do when you need a letter is to shout what you want really loud at the monitor. I do that until the wife comes in and presses the key for me. I got the idea from Stephen Hawking. He's quite bright you know
Cheers IOWT! Bit of @ lifes@ver</p> **** this is @nnoying!</p> Especi@lly when it's works l@ptop!</p>
RE: Best thing to do mate I'm s@t here kicking myself for being such @ tit</p> Then @g@in it is my d@d's f@ult, I w@s quite h@ppy s@t here doing **** @ll work, then @s soon @s he @rrives, he gets me to do something @nd it c@uses my mug to be knocked over.</p> This would never h@ppen if I w@s still @ fecking student!</p>
You should be able to lever up each individual key they normaly just unclip but be careful of a small spring like thing underneath, then get some warm water on a q tip and wipe rounfd the key and the adjacent keys, or try a proprietry cleaning fluid for electricals.
You could try writing with words that don't contain any 'a's For example: Cheers IOWT! You life preserver. **** this is bothersome Chiefly when it's the works computer
RE: You could try writing with words that don't contain any 'a's I concur</p> However, it isn't quite so simple...I will see how well I cope </p>
never thought of a q-tip. If you invent 2 robots, when they're done cleaning your laptop, you can make them play gladiators against each other until your Dad tells you to get some work done.
