's' button failure!
Reply
Posted 2012-10-06, 11:48 PM
My s button is starting to fail on my laptop. Not sure what caused it or what is going on.

Basically 2 things are happening.

1. Either there is a huge delay between pushing the key, and the computer processing that its been pushed.

2. The key just plain sticks. (most noticeable in WoW where if you tap s to back up, your character continues to move.)

Anyone know what could be the causes, possible fixes, and or solutions?

Replace the keyboard on the laptop? They aren't very expensive.

I had no idea you could remove the keyboard /and put them back in/. Is there a safe, easy instruction on how to do this?

You can also pop off the keys from the top side on some keyboards. Learned that from a 2 year old :facepalm:.

If it's just the 'S' button doing that you can rule out the first reason.

Remove the keyboard, inspect/clean the undersurface, replace it if need be.
