    I mean did you damage your keyboard...? Sometimes you can order specific keys but it is a real pain to find specific ones for your laptop. What laptop do you have? It might be easier just replacing the keyboard..

    adrenaline...or to much of it? try to not rage next time- its just a game :D

    Tsunade has right, but you should check your keyboard first and try to pinch this key up or whatever is needed to get it working as it should. If you not succed, ebay.com/keyboard for laptops :(

    I had this problem with an eee pc 900. I took the keyboard out(very very easy on this netbook) and washed it in warm water and dish soap. Well the enter key worked again but others failed. So I had to get a new keyboard and everything worked great. Just my experience

    you don’t need to to buy a new keyboard as this company http://laptopkey.com is selling single replacement keys in few bucks. They have a good customer service, they helped me fix my A key 2 months ago. I am sure they will help you out as well.
