Hey,

You need to replace the keyboard. Turn the laptop off. Dry the keyboard. fully. Hopefully the coffee is only on the keyboard and there wasn't enough coffee to get inside the computer.

So if after drying the keyboard completely it still doesn't function.
You need to get a replacement keyboard.

I just bought one from ebay few weeks ago www.ebay.com see if you can find one for your model.


Let me know if you need anything else.


Thanks,
Ekse

- The keyboard is flat, its hard to take it apart without breaking it. I suggest you find a replacement from ebay. I got mine for 7usd and shipping, it came from hongkong but it was worth the wait.

What type of laptop do you have? You may be able to clean and dry the keyboard depending on the model

- Get a can of compressed air for cleaning computers and laptops and clean it out that way...it is dry air and will clean it up really quickly.
