[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1626749, member: 56379"] Liquid spills can be very unpredictable. Who knows what the liquid got in contact with inside the computer. If it was as easy as just popping some of the keys off the keyboard & doing some careful cleaning…it would be simple (if sticking keys was the problem). But the problem here is…the "equals" sign showing up when the space bar is pressed. Which is "weird" and unexpected. Under any other circumstance (no liquid spill)…someone might suggest that the problem was a preference setting. But this probably isn't the case here…since the problem started AFTER a liquid spill. Liquid spill = problem. And "problem" in this case = liquid spill (not a preference setting). - Nick [/QUOTE]
