    Hello to everyone,

    A couple nights ago while having a few drinks with my buddy I accidently poured some beer on the keyboard. After pulling the battery, drying off and waiting a couple days we found out that the "A", "S" and "Q" keys will not work. Everything else still works like a charm except for those 3 keys. How can I remedy this problem, clean?? or does he need a new keyboard.

    Thanks

    Well, your thread is "accidentally" closed. Damaging a laptop on purpose is downright wrong, and we aren't gonna help you out of that situation.

    Time to call Sony to see about getting a keyboard replacement, which I hope your friend expects you to pay for and deal with it.
