Ok, as intelligent and clever as I am, I spilt coco pops (complete with chocolatey milk) on my keybaord the other week.

I managed to pull they affected keys out and clean most of it off, but I don't think I did something quite right any my Enter key keeps getting stuck down and messing up my esay and web browsing! Not sure if I might have put the metal bit that pushes it back up in wrong?

Please help!

dont be soft.................. take it to bits,,, and soak the keys in soapy water....... it comes apart in 3 bits,,,,, top cover and keys,,,, soft plastic cover and circuit board,,,, bottom cover.. !!!! separate all 3,, soak the keys,, leave to dry while yer take the dog out.... build back up... saved £4.!

:o sounds a bit radical to me, what if i can't put it back together again?!

But as for the part about taking the dog for a walk, I'd love to, anyone have one I can borrow?! :D
