I would try opening up the laptop and putting it on its side to let it dry out.  It should dry up in a couple of day and then try to use it again and see if it works.  usually this works if there was not that much liquid that was spilt on the machine.

you could do a system restore if you can find that and restore to a point before your nephew messed your computer up.

I am an expert at keyboard disasters, I have spilled coffee in mine more than a couple of times...\nUnscrew the back. You should be able to get to the insides that way. I have heard rumors about how you can wash a keyboard in water as long as it dries thoroughly. The IT guy at my work says he has done it...Just make sure it is TOTALLY dry before attempting to use again. BTW, I get keyboards at the Goodwill for $1.99..doesn't hurt to have a spare just in case you are waiting for one to dry out.

Eck, that has happened to me before with my space bar on my laptop. Got it back on but it still doesn't work right to this day.\n\nThe best thing to do, if you cannot get it back on, is see if its still under warrantee and get the keyboard replaced. If not, might be a little pricey (for a keyboard anyway), but you can order a replacement keyboard and have someone put it in. If your computer savvy enough to do it, then certainly do. You'll have to find some technical specs for that laptop to find out what paneling you need to pry off around the keyboard to pull the keyboard out, but its not to big a job to replace a laptop keyboard.

I dont think you can do too many of any of those things.  If it is a new computer i would take it back and exchange it for a new one if possible or get it serviced.  \nE

I had a similar problem.  I didn't take it to a PC doctor, I just buried it and played taps.  It was three years old and did fine for me in that time.  Now that I bought a new processor, perhaps I'll dig it up and see if anything can be done.

check the connections in the back of your computer, unplug it and then plug it back in, that should fix it.  If not I bet your keyboard is messed up, new ones are like $10 or less

Right click it and edit with notepad, see what you can recover

Try  the reset buttons.  There is one on the mouse and one on the receiver.  Press both of them and see if that helps.\n\nAlso make sure your batteries are good.

Make sure it still have fluid in it and if so it will probably work after a few clicks and probably work by the time you get this answer

It sounds like you may've damaged your keyboard. Have you spilled anything on it, or dropped, your laptop, or otherwise done unintended (or intended) damage?

You will need to buy a new keyboard. Or you can try to open it and clean all the terminals where keys make contact.

Could be a dodgy mouse or keyboard.  Also try looking for sticky keys.\nIf it is a new computer then send it back and get it repaired for free.

Go to a repair shop and fix it. Don't open the laptop yourself or you may end up with bigger problems

swears she never had problems with it? theres your answer. you got scammed buddy. i suggest you throw it out tha window. theres no hope. you could buy a brand new one for cheaper than what it will cost you for the computer nerds to fix.

if you can, try keyboard on another computer to see if it's the keyboard causing the problems, if the keyboard is fine,- did it have driver disk as some do? if so reinstall the drivers. is it wireless? if so replace batteries or move it closer to sensor. or is it down to you beating it senseless after a medal of honour defeat or something?
