i try not to get that kinda stuff on the keys

the keyboard rolls overtop of my lap, so it'd be pretty hard to get cum on it

wash it, but be prepared to set it under a fan or dehumidifier for a few days.

One of these days I am going to take off all of the keys and really get all the gunk (read: sperm) out.

xpdnc 07-29-2003 00:14

i'd need it dried by thursday though, and i'm leaving on wednesday night :/

eris 07-29-2003 00:16

if you've been looking for an excuse for a new one, dirt + upcoming lan definitely works.

Alpine 07-29-2003 00:16

Buy a new one and is that a compaq?

Excel 07-29-2003 00:17

Well then you better get started, and get it under a fan overnight. Do that and it will be fine by thursday, even with travel.

I have one of those annoying ass keyboards where you can't press more than 2 keys at the same time or else the 3rd key you press doesn't work

really ****s up trying to ski in tribes :(

xpdnc 07-29-2003 00:17

it IS a compaq, but since i bought it i've changed the mobo, cpu, OS, soundcard, and graphics card

so it's a compaq case, keyboard, and monitor

open up the keyboard and take everything apart. pop the keys off too if you can. then give it a good cleaning. let it dry for about a few hours and that should be fine.

Wren 07-29-2003 00:18

oh yeah and it's really dirty and disgusting

screwdriver?

Don't take the spacebar off you will never get it back on!!!!!!!!

xpdnc 07-29-2003 00:19

the spacebar is relatively clean

Take all the keys off and vacuum the loose stuff out. They should pop off fairly easily. You may need to use a small screwdriver to get the first few off but you should be able to pry them off with your fingers. Use a damp paper towel or something to get the food off the actual keys. It may take a bit more time but you'll be able to use it immediatley after you put it back together. The keyboard I'm using this second is 8 years old and still going strong thanks to a little regular maintainence.
