    Hey everyone, I spilled water on the upper right portion of my Asus Z63A keyboard. This disabled two important keys ..Backspace and Delete. If I were to buy a new keyboard through asus estore : http://estore.asus.com/shop/item.asp?itemid=2643

    Would those keys function again? If so, is a keyboard something hard to install? I would also be replacing the palm rest with a new one if I were to do this.

    LMK, Thanks!

    The keyboard is not too difficult to install, no, and the two keys that were damaged should work fine on the new keyboard. Your reseller should have ASUS assembly instructions, and I'm sure about 20 different people on NBR can get the instructions for you, too :D.
