I need some help cleaning up my 7811 guys?

hey guys i spilled coke all over my right part of my keyboard, i immediately flipped the pc and put it on top of a towel, to help it drie up. Well it worked the pc seems to work fine that night it restarted 3 times on me but that was due over heating (forgot to turn on the under-clocking after it restarted) At any rate, they keys are super hard to click now and its annoying. I tried to use a knife to pull them out but i see its not that type of keyboard. So my question is how do you clean this type of keyboard? i cant pull it apart pls help me. Thank you very much for your time

 

try methanol?

 

but how do i pull it apart, i cant just trow methanol on top of the keyboard :O?

 

There were users a while back that were asking about replacement keys or keyboards becuase when they tried to pry a key off it broke. I wouldn't try it if I were you.

Instead of trying to take an individual key off, I would suggest you look at one of the bluetooth modding threads. Look at that for info on how to pull the keyboard off the laptop, then clean it and wait for it to dry and put it back together.

 

yea i tried to pull a key but i saw a white palstic thing so this is not the type of keyboard that releases its keys, i will keep looking for the post your are talking about thanks.

 

it shouldn't be too hard to get the keyboard off, if i remember correctly you just have to remove the media bar up top(two screws under battery) and then you'll see the screws for the keyboard. just be careful when lifting things out 'cause of the wires.

 

and if u break the keyboard i see replacements sometimes on ebay for 80-90 bucks, pricey. but clean+dry is better way to go.
