The only way to clean it is to take out the keyboard, soak it in water, dry (completely of course), and reinstall. You could also use some isopropyl, but you have to be very conservative with it.That might not fix the problem entirely, but it'll help. I did something similar to my old laptop and it's working fine except for a single key that tends to be a bit mushy. It's not easy to do, so you might want to bring it in to a local service place. They've got the tools to pop it right out. Shouldn't cost all that much. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
