I spilled some water on my keyboard this morning, so I left it to dry in the window while I went to class. I came back 12 hours later, assuming the keyboard had completely dried, and started up. Everything seemed to be fine, but I just realized that my 3, 4, and 6 key on the upper row are not working.
I opened up the keyboard and gave it the hairdryer treatment for a few minutes, but the keys are still dead. Is there any way to fix this?
It's a Gateway branded Keytronic keyboard from around 2001. I love this keyboard and I hope I can fix it.
It seems that this guy, was able to fix a keyboard by putting down some aluminum foil on the traces that had shorted. Is there any way that I could test where I would need to do this in order to fix my keyboard?
