    I have a dell 1525 laptop but since this morning the qwer/uiop buttons have stopped working when I try and use them.


    Does anyone know of any solution to this.

    Was anything spilled on it.

    I have had to fix loads of those laptops and are really common, and full of issues, especially with battery and charger, you should find someone selling parts on ebay or adverts.ie

    In the mean time a usb keyboard or windows onscreen keyboard will keep the machine going.

    If you use it on the go alot look for one of those rubber keyboards they are only around 10 Euro and they roll up easily for storage.

    make sure there is nothing under the keys including moisture
    if you can, remove the keyboard and reseat it
    most likely you will have to replace it so start looking at ebay
