First, it's my gf's laptop, so may be this is my last post if you don't help me :shock:

. My stupid friend :evil:

dropped a burning matchstick on the keyboard after lighting his cig, melting the key around Caps Lock. Please tell me if i could replace the individual keys, or if the whole keyboard needs changing. Also, how much is it gonna cost me

. The laptop's model number is Compaq Presario M2000.

oh thats kind of strange and sad incidence ..which brand it is ...ask the dealer i guess they can change it by charging some money ...

if ur keyboard is working correctl y now then u'll hafta search shops who sell 2nd hand/dead parts.only there shall u be able to get a single key.else u'll hafta buy a new 1.
the last option is get a xternal usb keyboard.

The keys are working fine, but the looks I am about to receive are killing me slowly. I hope to locate a spare key or two, else jebus save me...

i don't think there are spare keys....are they?

Getting keys are little tough.
