spilled Orange Juice on daddies Laptop
spent a couple hours opening it up, and cleaning every single bit i could
monitor wasnt touched, nor was the ram, motherboard or harddisk
havent found the exact location of the graphics card...
some background: i have a password on the computer, so i have no possible way of finding out what keys are being sent to the computer.. i only see *****'s
now for the question,
when i press a key, some 4 or 5 *'s appear, like if i was typing 4 or 5 keys at once. Escape either sends out a *, or clears the screen.
Enter is located somewhere between the PageDown and the Arrows, all of them produce a return key at random intervals
Caps lock only lights up the LCD when pressed hard, or at random intervals
if i dont screw the keyboard back in, it beeps at me, and if i move it around, the beeps stop. Sometimes it even writes *'s without me pressing any key
Anyone experiences such thing? My belief is that the keyboard still has orange juice in it, so when i press a key it sends the electric output to the other keys around it, making it appear to write several keys at one
Im gonna call the technician tomorrow, and get him ready with a new keyboard by the 24th when my dad returns to portugal...
just had to share this
laugh at will ..
