    Rain Malfunctioned My Keyboard - Help!

    Hi, guys! My laptop needs your help badly. Last week, rain seeped into my laptop. But the only damage was the malfunction of the keyboard. Most of the keys function correctly except for: TAB, F2, F3, F6 and the Function key. How do I regain these keys?

    you used your laptop out in the rain, didn't you?

    Anyways, have you contacted your laptop's manufacturer to see if they can replace the keyboard component of your laptop?

    **EDIT: Admins, shouldn't this be topic be in some other category other than WinXP?***

    Yeah. Check with your laptop's manufacturer, see if it's still under warranty. If it is, they should repair it. If not, then I'm not sure what you're going to have to do to get it repaired.
