[QUOTE="chscag, post: 718852, member: 46727"] 1. The key knob: Try to use some kind of a makeshift to get the key back on, otherwise you'll wind up replacing the entire keyboard because of it. 2. Cleaning the drive requires removing it and lots of care because of the optical reader. The drive itself may have to be replaced before long. Go to [url]www.ifixit.com[/url] and take a look at their disassembly instructions regarding the drive. They also sell replacement drives. And, go over everything you can see or access to make sure it hasn't been contaminated with Gatorade. Problems relating to spills usually show up after a period of time. Regards. [/QUOTE]
