Re: Keyboard woes



I was having keyboard troubles like yours a little while ago.  I'll try to give
you an easy step-by-step process to follow.
 
 1. Unscrew all of the screws on the bottom of your keyboard and take the
    plastic strip on the top of the keyboard off.
 
 2. Unplug all cables from the ADB ports.
 
 3. Turn the keyboard over and lightly tap it on the back so that the keyboard
    falls out of the case (don't worry, it's easy to get it back in).
 
 4. Near each ADB port, there are four solder joints which are labelled "1",
    "2", "3", and "4".  Simply heat up the solder on each solder joint (you
    might as well do both sides of your keyboard while you have it open).
    IMPORTANT -- Make sure that the solder joints ARE NOT TOUCHING WHEN THEY
    DRY!!!
 
 5. Plop the keyboard back into the case, screw it all back together, plug
    your cables back in, and fire up your computer.  It should work fine.
 
A note -- remember that the solder joints are on the BACK of the keyboard.
Good luck!  If you need more help, let me know and I'll try to help you.
