    Literally just tryed for an hour putting it back in and ended up breaking the clamps on the key. Where can i get a replacement key, I contacted HP and they wanted to sell me a whole new keyboard for 80$ which i wasn't down for. I see them ebay but i simply don't know exactly what i need. Im supter frustrated right now and all I want to do is play Call of Duty but im stuck trying to fix this. Sorry if i sound like 14 year old but i hate doing anything with little peices.

    Now I'm not saying you should or anything like that, but I had a friend of a friend who, if he or she needed to get a replacement key, would stop by his or her local electronics store to see the floor models. Maybe the particular key he or she was looking for just fell on the floor or something like that.
