Hi there,
on my laptop one key is faulty. If I press on the bottom half of the key it will work, but pressing on the top halve fails to work. (compared to other keys upon which pressing anywhere on the key will work)
Keyboards do break, but is this one repairable? Because I don't think I could get a replacement for it.
How are the keys attached and can the attachment be repaired?
Thanks in advance :)

First try cleaning the KB following your whatever laptop manual.

Your OS is whatever and your CPU?Ram is whatever as well. I don't think you could get a replacement keyboard without knowing the Manufacturer of your laptop.
