seriously tho... have you got an airing cupboard or something... stick it in there overnight maybe? I did that with DD1's mobile after she split stuff on it...

becklespeckle · 03/03/2007 18:01

if tea had sugar in then it might not be fixable... think it is the sticky that wrecks the keys

Turn it upside down - and then blow air into it with a hairdryer on the cool setting. I fixed my laptop like this the other day after somebody spilt coffee on it and it had appeard to be totally dead for a while.

If you really want to keep the keyboard then the thing to do is wash it under the cold tap in the bath (or shower). This gets rid of all the gunk that's stopping the keys working. Dry off with a towel as much as you can, then leave in the airing cupboard for a week to fully dry out.
Alternatively, just buy a new one. From under a tenner .
