    Alright so i just received my M1530 today, i love it. everything is perfect on it except two things.

    The "w" and "A" squeak every time you press it down. Very annoying, especially considering they are used alot for gaming. Anyone encountered this before and found a fix for it? Let me know, i tried taking the keys off but didnt want to break them so stop trying.

    Thanks

    Usually it wears out and wont do it anymore...but if it keeps up and you really can't stand it, you can call dell and they will send a replacement keyboard.

    I had the exact same problem when I had my M1330. I guess there's really no way to fix it. After one and half week, it really drive me insane so I had to call dell for exchange.
