Problem
 
Right, i have washed my laptop this morning, and now when i am typing random numbers are coming up on certain letters i type. for example:

caps lock = 2
y = y7
t = t4

this will fix itself won't it?

Umm, maybe.

What do you mean you washed your laptop?

Did you use washing up liquid or washing powder ?

:conf:

You shouldnt have washed the keyboard like that, it might start working normal again when it drys out though, you can buy a proper spray for cleaning the keyboard for about a quid out any shop that sells print cartridges etc, so don't be so stingy next time :nono:

It won't clean it well enough :bored:

:joker: try going to control panel>language>keyboard & check the settings or remap the keys.

Yeah, computers and liquids are a definite :nono:

..... and any sort of sticky additive, like sugar or soap, will usually make the situation unrecoverable ..... :eek:

(I did get away with beer spillage once, though ..... :blush:)
