Whats wrong with the keyboard?

Well I just got my 6214W, its a fine laptop overall but the keyboard has some huge issues. It's like they forgot to tighten some screws or something. One end of the spacebar sticks out while the other one is just fine. One side of the keyboard is lower the other side etc.

Is there something I can do on my own without voiding the warranty? I don't want to send it back to Zepto and wait another 2 weeks

 

Hi nhat,

could you explain it to me a bit more in detail.

1. Is the spacebar a bit higher in one side than the other ?
2. is it a bit lower on the right hand side ?

Yes the spacebar is higher on the right side.

Also it's not the right hand side but more like the middle which is a bit lower.

And the 'shift' and 'y' button get stuck sometimes. It doesnt happen when I try to make them stuck, but when I'm typing something most of the time.

 

Bumpie bump.

Anyone else with the 6214W that has these problems?

 

My keyboard doesn't give me problems (at least not since I updated the bios) but it's not the best quality either - the right lower end is somewhat loose and rattles when I hit the arrows keys.
I'm currently waiting for the Belgian Azerty keyboard which they're gonna send me (for free, they assembled my zepto with a French Azerty without asking while I ordered a Belgian one) when they get them early november. Hope it will be better...

 

I know how you feel. As far as the space-bar, I think that's just bad engineering, placing only one switch under the bar instead of two. If i hit the spacebar on the right, I can press it all I want without getting a "space".

Some of my keys has also had the feel that you can't push them down. But after I've had the keys off and on, they work fine!

 

And you didn't contact Zepto about this?

 

I'm bumping this one more time, hoping that MKJ replies. Otherwise I'm gonna have to call them myself.
