    Ok, so I've been checking out the how-tos that cj2600 has at irisvista.com... I'm using a Satellite A215 and I find it curious that mine does not conform to either of the A215s shown on that site. It is similar to one of them, but it's a small matter.

    I partially took my A215 apart in order to clean the keyboard. Now the keyboard doesn't want to work correctly! I found that I had not completely connected the ribbon cable. I paid more attention this time and connected it fully. So, now everything except the keys "ZAQ1" seems to work.

    I'm having to use an external keyboard! Does anyone have any advice? Should I just buy a new keyboard?
