    Hello. I really need someone to help, desperatly.

    I removed some of my IBM Thinkpad R50e, keys to clean muck underneath. Placed them back on all fine, then I removed the shift and the enter key. But now these two will not place back on properly.
    I know I shouldnt of really removed the keys, but the muck underneath was just anoying me.

    I rung IBM, but they said they will not do seperate key replacements, only a full keyset which would cost me.

    Does anyone have a replacement keyset, or clips that go underneath the IBM Thinkpad laptop keys. I would be so **** greatfull if someone could help me out...

    Regards,
    Hunter // John

    I've seen people selling individual keys on Ebay. Depends on how new your model is, I guess - and which keys are the most wanted.
