| 825972 | 2009-11-01 00:30:00 | On my laptop keyboad one side of the spacebar doesn't really stick its just a wee bit harder than the other side of the spacebar. So I have to put more pressure to push down one side than the other. But if I give the key a hard smack it makes it better for about 5-10min. I have had a look under the key (by lifting the side up gently and it doesnt seem like there is anything under there. So I think it might be the hinge piece that is broken. (I am not sure though so I anyone is able to correct me that would be good!) Is there a way to fix this without breaking the keyboard? |

| 825974 | 2009-11-01 21:38:00 | Yeah pop it off (gently) and have a look. Sometimes it's fixable, sometimes not. You are unlikely to make it worse. Out of interest, what brand of notebook is it? www.laptoprepair101.com That might be of some use. |
