Minor Computer Accident - Help required!

[robjf]

Ok so earlier i accidentaly spilt a bit of water on my USB keyboard which now, understandably, works intermitently (for instance pressing "w" results in "we" and other keys just dont work.

I got a ps2 keyboard from a friend and it works on his computer but not on mine :S. Im a bit screwed as i need to print out some work for a lecture tomorrow.


Any ideas as im stumped. :/

Cheers, Rob

EDIT: It seems to work fine in the bios but as soon as i get to the welcome to windows screen (where i have to press CTRL-ALT-DEL) nothing works. :S

Voice dictation: I have no microphone :S

BIOS: Nothing in there, would there be any jumpers etc on the motherboard?

Hmmm ive kindof sorted the problem.

I tried the PS2 Keyboard again to no avail. I then got a friends usb keyboard (im in halls hence i got 1 so quick) and that worked, logged in to pc and all was fine. Unplugged the USB KB and the PS2 one then worked. Restarted the computer with just the PS2 Keyboard plugged in and strangely it then worked!

Do you think that my USB Keyboard is just shorting out a bit as its still damp? Either way ill leave it overnight to dry.

Cheers for all the help lads (and any ladys?!)
