Hello everybody.

Some months ago i spilled liquid in my computer. Now everything is working so so. One issue i have is the keyboard. The keyboard is working but its configured as special chrachter keyboard, and i have tried to changed the Ksettings, but it does not seem to work. Although i download KeyRemap4Macbook, then the keyboard works. Anyone know how to fix the keyboard so i can use it without keyremap4macbook

thanx

It seems that one of the modifier keys (alt/option, shift, command, etc.) is stuck. Water damage often causes this (shift for me). I'm afraid keyremap4macbook is your only option for the moment. It's very hard to clean the keyboard since to reach it, you have to disassemble the whole device and then remove the glued keyboard shield.

thanx for the reply.
but the reply, but the keyboard is working fine in windows 7. and is there anyway that the remapped start up every time i power on the computer, because currently now i can now have password because the programs loads after i put the password, so is any way that the remapper starts when the login form comes up.
thanx:)
