    ok a friend of mine said he split coke on his keyboard and mouse buttons on his m105. I got the keyboard loose but am not sure how to get the connector off since it connects to the main board under another piece. I cant figure out how to get this second piece off. I also need to get that second piece off because that is where the mouse buttons are at and they are sticky too. any hep guys? I looked though the sticky at the top but the m105 is not covered.

    ok I finally pried the front silver piece apart fro the bottom black piece and now I can see the underside of the 2 mouse buttons. now, I cannot figure out how to get the silver piece off from the back where the LCD connects to the base. or can I just take the buttons off from where I am at?

    Have you checked the disassembly guide for this notebook? Apparently, the silver part in the back where the speakers are) is separate from the front. Not sure that's what you mean though, but the guy in the guide uses a guitar pick to pry the front part of the silver top off the machine... Of course, he had already taken out a whole bunch of screws...anyway, good luck!
