Internet keyboard

by Fred Scott Mar 10, 2006 5:44AM PST

I have a Office Keyboard series and spilled an Apple Vinegar drink on my keyboard and quickly shook the drink out by shaking like heck, lots of water came out.
Then let it dry for a couple of days and today I reintalled it back in to find all sorts of funny things happening not worth a darn, unreadable typing.

I reintalled the keyboard program and that didn't help.
My question? is it best to junk the keyboard and get another keyboard or is there away to solve this as this keyboard was great to use.

Never heard of an apple vinegar drink

Obviously the water evaporated,but the remnants from the other ingedients remain.Who knows,it might even conduct or impede the mechanisms.

Rinse it thourghly with water,dry out.If that don,t do,toss it,their dirt cheap.

Fred, Ditto Tom's Suggestion

by Grif Thomas Former Forum moderator Mar 12, 2006 3:32AM PST

New keyboards are fairly inexpensive.. If washing out the keyboard with warm water, then thoroughly drying it doesn't fix things, then buy a new one.

Hope this helps.

I forgot to mention that when keyboard is thoroughly dry,A hair dryer would expedite this.

Use contact cleaner(water displacement)
