Hi all

I spilt water on my laptop a couple of days ago. I immedately switched it off, and left it off with the screen open to dry. It was left with the air getting to the keys to dry it off.

Now when i come to switch it back on, certain keys dont work. Has the water actually broke them, or is there something else i need to do. I was hoping if i switched it on and used it for a bit, the heat would dry the keys out. But still no luck.
 
was it pure water? tap water? juice?

normally when this happens it means that the water has left some residue between the key-contacts which stops them from working.
