[Jyrow]

My spacebar started acting weird. Later my M key started acting up. Then a little bit ago I realized by J key was jammed but the M was alright. Glad to have found this vid because my keyboard is identical. I think it was a little bit of beef jerky stuck under the key... :/

[afrouta2011]

thank you

[lucho52]

The keys are not designed to be removed - WARNING - you will probably break your keyboard!

[karatekid1ish]

do you do the same thing with the arrow keys?

[ImportXtuner]

[Mkisho]

After reading some of the comments here, I think I'd rather keep my shit dirty.

[Twilightcrazyteen]

I'm not going to try this because with my luck I wouldn't be able to get the keys back on

[Nathpeggsy]

dont follow this gus advice, think my y key is seriousl broken, and i have the exact same laptop as this dude

[tweekee1]

"There's a hair in there...probably came from my face or something..."

........Sure.

[tweekee1]

My heart stopped when I popped my shift key off. I thought I broke it...This is serious stuff.

[DefeatenOnceTrailers]

[AverageGamer12]

@jptyarr You should read the annotation at the start of the video before doing this but of course you didnt and look what has happened.

[Rosalita52]

You just saved my sanity. I work on my laptop, and a little bit of plastic got stuck under the 'd'... mine's a Packard Bell by the way (Butterfly series) and it worked totally fine, very easy to put the keys back too! THANK YOU!!

[wesleybaitson]

[ICole1987]

I had a shift key that just got messed up for some reason, and this method fixed it quick - so thank you! (HP Pavilion laptop)

[xjoesix]

Fuck that! My first key I take off "Shift" and i couldn't figure out how to reassemble it till after 1hr & 30 mins later! lol i'm afraid that will happen to the rest of the keys... I'm happy with having a dirty working keyboard now :]

[ninat25]

I think I broke my 'enter' key.

[R4vindcption101]

same laptop and under my keys is a magical land full of crumbs and other rubbish

[iamufreak]

I aint doing this ever ever ever ever again!!! Use the can of air and ONLY do this if you have a key sticking you cant fix. I broke my arrow up key base. It's still snaps the key and it works but it no longer works as a micro trampoline setup. it's sunk in now.

[chokolade53]

I dont get the dislikes here this video is great tutorial how to remove and clean your keyboard. -.-

[ltcfitz]

DDG - The shift key on my Toshiba had become very temperamental and felt as if something were underneath it.  I had NO idea how to do this until I watched your video. Thank you for the help! You saved me the price of a service call. God bless you, buddy.

[6sic666666]

[highrise]

[ManiSparks]

[MrLilort]

@ManiSparks

[mvenom101]

"i just pull on it and get it up there."

hmmm...

[eireseeker]

Thank you! My ''F' key has begun to stick on my Compaq laptop. I was leery of trying to remove the key at first but watching your video makes me realize it's not a big deal to remove it to see what's gotten stuck under it.

[sycookies]

thank you !

[abbshorty]

Thank you!! soo soo grateful my 'S' is now not sticking :) xx

Sss s s s s YEah!!

[XxTreetailxX]

XD I thought I had broke my space key when I popped it out and a few little parts came with it! I had to look at my End key to figure out how to put the little two black parts back together that hold the key. I'm comfortable popping out the other keys that are letters and numbers... just not anything larger XD

[denfilade]

Well crap...my "c" key is broken now haha.

[sparkybigptalkshow]

I CAN'T PUT SPACE BACK IN

[TheDonkyPuncher]

[Tashley2011]

[arshish007]

[MauveHorror]

I was sooo worried I had broken my shift key because it would not click back in right! lol I never even thought about the metal bars. This is like the only tutorial I could find on youtube that demonstrates how to replace a shift key! haha I feel so happy now, thank you so much! (:

[MegaTutorial101]

Sorry that I disliked this video..... But this may only work only in few laptops.... Not all laptop keyboard is as same as you're laptop keyboard.....

[HardyBoyz009]

Wooooah. You have the same laptop as me :) Thank you for the tips :)

[LeahLovesTheWorld]

I broke my shift key doing this!

[NoPRoBLeMtr]

Thank you :)

[annieliz1000]

I cant get my space bar backon the metal pieces go through the holes but theyget stuck where the metal comes back up right below the holes

[TheRoyalAustin]

@annieliz1000 I really wonder how you just typed that ._.

[annieliz1000]

@TheRoyalAustin Are you retarded?

[IndigoDork]

@TheRoyalAustin the plastic keys aren't the things that make the letters appear on the screen.

[GFImTypo]

Just like that L0l?

Cant make myself do it <.<

[TheGdragon123]

sticky keys wahah nice XD

[kingroy00]

thanks I spilled coke on my laptop and i was able to clean all the sticky keys

[SoloWing9936T]

@kingroy00 i have the same problem. the keys are sticky, found out how to pop them off without breaking the brackets. what did you use to clean it?

[kingroy00]

@SoloWing9936T I used cotton and alcohol because it dries fast

[ThisIsEmoraj]

awesome video.worked perfect for me

[jazziejazzcreations]

had no problem with my shift key, but my ctrl key is killing me. its being so difficult!! ahh!!! thanks for the vid tho lol i love your response to the idiots

[arg4kjr]

Works a treattttttttttttt

[Russel1110]

Thanks this helped. My esc button was kinda blocked by something and I was scared I would fuck something up if i try to remove the button

[Frostmanej]

IT worked for me! :D ty for video...my keys work alot better.

[DWhoFan2011]

My Laptop Keys are alot different - I keep going to do it but ma laptop cost me £500 , [$700] And I dont wanna go fiddling with it

[tarutan21]

You do NOT just tear these keys off and snap them back in. they are too delicate and you risk damage. This guy is an idiot and not a pro. Watch a professional video.

[elrenaud888]

I was scared to try this ... but I had 2 badly sticking keys. I was real careful pulling them off and sure enough there was some junk under the keys that air would not blow out. I cleaned them off and replaced the keys as you showed. I don't know about anyone else, but I greatly appreciate your video ... now my keys are working fine. You saved me a trip to the repair shop and now I can hopefully safely keep my keyboard cleaner. thanks !!!

[WuTang011]

@elrenaud888 Haha me too! I was sweating like a mofo while taking them off.

[pedaldamnit]

get a tripod. Your vids suck. Its like watching the Blair witch project.

[DavinDaGeek]

@pedaldamnit You mean video? Because I didn't know one video makes up for 187 videos? I know you haven't seen any of my other videos because if you did then you'll see that I do own a tripod. I didn't use one in this video because I had to get really close to the keyboard, can't do that with the camera on the tripod.

[sparkybigptalkshow]

I can't get it out

[00shikuro00]

i wonder if this works for htc netbook too....my keyboard used to be pink and fancy and turned up dirty and black! hahah... ty for the advice!

[travismillette]

thanks for the vid dick!Now i dont have an enter button!

[RabeesAnimations]

Tried taking off a few keys but they refused to budge. Thankfully I stopped pulling before anything broke. As an alternative I tried using a pocket knife to get a few hairs outta there and wound up leaving a scratch. I guess my keyboard will remain disgusting for another day.

[HelenDots]

lol I've done this a billion times without even knowing it was ok to remove the keys :P.. i just had to get 'em clean :C... never made a mistake... don't know what all this dumb people whine about.

[IMikeTysonI]

ibrokemyspacebarohshit!

[crystaleve29]

my keyboard was acting up and all it was, was one stuck key apparently. For those breaking keys, you probably pulled to hard. Its one of those things you have to have a gentle hand for. stop saying it doesnt work. how do u think professionals would clean under the keys. they still have to pull up the keys one way or another.

[TheLegendaryDman]

dark chocolate



[alejandroomi]

I rather leave my hairs and lint for posterity!

[ssaannlloo]

worked fine with. now i can finaly clean up all the shit from the past years!!

[ratz40]

omg thank you man  my left arrow key hasnt been fixed for 2 years and now its in thank you soo muchhhh

[criso1506]

Thank you so much. My C key has been sticking forever and I finally got brave enough to pry it off. Turns out there was a sprinkle underneath that was making it stick!

[NearMABINOGI]

i need some help, i tried to take off my caps key, and the key took out the little things that grab the key, luckily they are not broken and can be reattached, but it just wont fit, if i do try to make it fit, it will break, do you have any idea how to re-attach the little things that grab the keys? tyvm

[dudesondays]

TYVM BRO! I Just cleaned out my Keyboard fuck, all these haters and trolls :)

[rememberxjuly]

:\ i don't blame you, but I can't get my key back on... our keyboards looked identical on the surface, so I thought, "oh what the hell." But underneath they don't have the same locking methods. Good thing I chose a key I never use ^^' guess I'll just take it down to the shop...heh heh..

[laydeelapis113]

Thank you so much!! This totally worked on my Acer notebook! And wooow, I found a whole lot of shit under there. I'm making it a point to clean under the keys more regularly now to avoid keys sticking. I appreciate this :)

[ThePotterKIR]

@hockeykid3995 gf bro.

[grieverzgc]

worked like a charm. Typing this with my spacepar and left arrow working again :) thaks for this tutorial!

[fntsydrgn]

fyi everyone for these instructional videos: use at your own risk. if you brake it. then your SOL! anyway I have the same notebook as you do in this video. do you use any kind of tool ? or anything...and what kind of cleaning method do you suggest. i have some keys that are sticking like crazy

[CounterStrikeVids15]

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oomg!!!! YOOOS!!!

[Warteen13]

do u kno if it works on dell laptops? that have a similar looking keyboard? because mine is really dirty and if there isa nother way i would really like to kno how haha

[Christenson94]

@Warteen13 I have a Dell laptop myself, and it works quite well. You just gotta know how to pull the keys off and on without breaking them...

[Warteen13]

@Christenson94 ok cool thank you

[Christenson94]

Thank you very much sir, you helped me out quite a bit...

[DavinDaGeek]

@hockeykid3995 For your info It does work, what do you think I was using in this video, cgi or something? You think me pulling my keys off and putting them back on was fake?Please enlighten me.and don't go getting mad at me for your incompetent mistakes.If you could learn how to read then you would have obviously seen a bigass annotation at the start of the video letting you know this method does not work on all laptops,and can't forget the description too.That shit is there for a reason.

[YanCR92]

@hockeykid3995 Hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahah­ahahahahahahaha xD

[AzEriOnlyFight]

@hockeykid3995 xaxaxaxa noob ;DD

[davedigi1]

[MsCandiAppleNatural]

[DancingJesus94]

Lovely job, I ended up getting a seed from a burger bun trapped under my 's' key, was such a pain in the ass trying to type with the 's' jamming.

Fortunately I have the exact same laptop as you, the Compaq, so at least I knew I wouldnt end up tearing the damn thing apart.

[Danny8849]

[tulcod]

[CaptainScarlet2006]
