some of the keys in my intex keyboard r not working properly

some times they work sometime not even when i press them hard . i have

tried to rectify this by opening keyboard (cos its out of warranty) and

replacing rubber below the culprit keys but all in vain

what should i do ? can this prob be rectified or should i go for a

new one ( suggest which one ) ?

Key boards are available from Rs. 140 :lol: and mind u once we bought few ZION and Amkate keyboards for our Cafe use, and man I compare them with TVS Gold !!! Those ZION and Amkate boards are running as good as TVS gold taking some much Public pounding !!!

so its better u invest few bucks on a new one rather trying and wasting time with the old one :p

Normal cause of such problem is deposition of moisture and dust below the keys.

Were they as comfortable as TVS and more importantly, were they all Mechanical too? :eek:

@author - Get a new keyboard, it doesn't hurt .. :) Just try and pick anyone of Logitech or Microsoft. I wouldn't recommend wireless unless you got a real big screen and can work far off from your computer.
