    Think I have buggered one of the keys ,,

    It was seemingly sticky on pop up,, so I tried to remove the key to have a look under.

    Underneath it came up at one end. I can see where the actual part of the key attaches on both sides of a square shape.

    But now i have the key dis-attached at one side completely with that end firmly attached down to the base,, but the other end where the key is still attached to the clip has come away from the base.

    Im not sure if its broken or not,, the last dell laptop was far easier to remove and replace keys

    Any help ??
