The other night I managed to spill a small drop of red wine in my laptop keyboard

I immediately removed the affected keys and managed to dry it up quite quickly but now, a few days later, some of the keys (bizarrely, none near where the drops were) don't work.


Any suggestions (other than not using it whilst drinking )? Maybe spray some contact cleaner or something?

Help!!

 

What make and model laptop is it?

I'm sure the big name manufacturers do replacable keyboards - wouldnt want to guess at a price though.

 

It's a Multivision who are now defunct I believe. In practice it's rebadged from a generic manufacturer, but off-hand I don't know who it was actually made by or the model.

 

plugin a cheap external keyboard?? perhaps

 

Hoping to avoid that one

 

Take it apart, get some screen cloths and clear the keyboard. plug it back in.

 

Cost me #70 for a new laptop keyboard after I punched it in anger one drunken evening!

 

Thanks to those that replied, just FYI, in the end I sprayed the keyboard with contact cleaner and now good as new as you can see as I am using it now
