    Hello, right before christmas we had a heavy windy rainstorm and some how i got a few drops of water on my keyboard and it stopped working. I ordered a new keyboard waitin for it to arrive. Useing a plug in usb temporarily.

    I looked at the instructions on here for disasembly and was wondering the 4 latches, do you just press down on them with a thin bladed screwdriver to release them...I can barely see them lol.

    thanks
