I spilled water over my laptop keyboard, help please - Sevn-7 - Apr 11, 2017

Hey,

So i spilled a cup of water over my laptop keyboard, it didnt seem like a problem at first, all the keys were working etc. It was after like 10 minutes after i dried it that keys started to stop working, and now almost all keys arent working. They press normally but like dont register the keys.

What can i do now?

Keyboard already haa stopped working pretty much, even keys where water didnt spill. Does that still help?

you got an external keyboard? plug it in and test to see if the KB is actually dead rather than it being something more serious

Rice, it worked when i got my phone wet. At night the rice will attract Asians who will fix it for you.
