    Hi i got a canadian hp laptop and it comes with a bilingual keyboard which means it comes with more unless keys and a deformed enter key and short shift.

    Does anyone kno if i can switch da bilingual keyboard with last years model keyboards which arent bilingual and a normal keyboard.
    my laptop model is dv6585.

    ok i got the video http://h20181.www2.hp.com/plmconten...402&MEID=59BC9853-13E9-4704-812F-406D6E398BB4

    on the left it will say keyboard this will show you how to take the keyboard out of your dv6500 not sure if you can get or even have a replacement but this videos will show you how to remove it then put it back in. if the video says remove something but doesn't say how to do so, then watch the other movies on the left to learn how to remove that part

    .good luck

    I just purchased a dv6565ca and it came with the same bilingual POS key-board. Do all dv65xx laptops come with this keyboard in Canada or did I just get stuck with a bilingual version instead of the english version?
