Messerschmitt Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Hi. Here is the problem. All of the sudden, my keyboard faild. I can't use space anymore, shift, delete, \, when I press num-lock it puts a * instead, etc. I can still write the letters and use the F functions or numkeys.All this happened suddenly when I played Il2 sturmovik. Now i am using a different keyboard. And I tried the keyboard on another computer, and same problem.All I can think of is I spilled some juice on it by mistake (just a little), only on the keypad section, and that was 3-4 hours ago, so it's a bit wired to fail because of that. And it's not the section where the juice spilled, it's functions (shift, both of them, space, enter, etc as I said above). Any sugestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcarle Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 There are quite a few shops that sell online for reasonable prices...I wonder every time I see this... What’s wrong with the computer shop around the corner?More expensive, always, unless the shop around the corner is the one with the website.This will be the third computer I buy completely from NCIX which is based in Vancouver, BC while I live in Montreal, QC. It is $150 - $250 cheaper to buy and ship a full computer from NCIX then to buy it locally here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Yes okay, a complete system, but for just a keyboard or cooler or other small thing I personally would go to the shop.Why? Well this is why:- You go out the door and take some "fresh" air- Walking is good, some computer freaks don’t walk at all, only to go for coffee (sarcasm here!).- You can see things physically before buying- You can try out the products before you buy (Keyboards, mice, speakers and so on...)- have a conversation physically instead by internet (who knows you could meet a nice lady or so )Okay, these are just the positives... Thank you jcarle... edited my post... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarman Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Standard keyboards are pretty cheap.The question you should be asking is what kind of make/model should i buy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idontwantspam Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 A good keyboard is important. Make sure it's comfortable, easy to type with, etc. You might want to look into getting one with extra features. For example, I have the Microsoft Digital Media Pro keyboard, and I really like it because of all the nice quick launch buttons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
