  Hi all.

   

  I've got a 4 yr old Fujitsu laptop here with some keys unresponsive. like when i the 'l' button nothing appears. Is this a problem which i can solve manually or do i need to go to a repair shop? Any recommendations if so? And also, would they be able to fix it immediatey ie just replace the keys 15-20 mins gao tim liao or does such a problem require a longer time?

   

  thanks.

  if u are sure it's oni a keyboard problem, u can try the shops in SLS tt do k/b replacement
  depending on the model and stock availability, it shd cost less than 100 bucks for part and labour

   

  pls do not go to fujitsu service centre if no wty bcos u would be chopped carrot head big big

  SLS is nearby Bugis Station.

  If the problem is minor, it should only take awhile.

  I suddenly realize SLS refers to Sim Lim Square -.-

  Any specific shops to recommend? I've got close to zero experience on that place...

  Alternatively what you can do is hook on an external usb keyboard instead. For portability, get an external flexible keyboard ($10-$20)..
