    Ok so my left arrow key broke on my keyboard over the weekend. I don't really want to have Best Buy fix it because I don't want to lose the computer for a week so I was wondering if I bought a keyboard from asus if anyone could tell me how hard is it to replace? I am use to working on home comps but as of yet I have never broken down a notebook mostly because this is the first time I've never had a backup and I like to use my warrenty.

    Thanks for any help.

    For Asus generally, remove <K> screws from the underside, pop the retention clips along the top edge of the keyboard with credit card or small flat screwdriver, remove keyboard, disconnect the keyboard cable, assemble in reverse.
