AlanHo Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 I picked up my keyboard today to move it out of the way - and dropped it. It landed with a thud on its side - and was immediately enveloped in a dust storm.Where it landed, the desk was covered in a fine layer of crumbs, tiny bits of paper, eyebrow litter, dandruff, electric razor dust and all sorts of unrecognisable detritus. Yuk.....I have just spent a happy 15 minutes trying to clean the keyboard innards (without removing any keys) by making use of miscellaneous toothpicks, brushes an an air jet aerosol and gently bouncing it upside down. Its amazing how much stuff came out.Try yours - you may have a surprise............................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-pops- Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 While you have the cleaning urge, have a look at the fans and filters in your main box.I have a problem with dog hair clogging my computer filters but that does improve the efficiency up to a point and enhances the collection of smaller particles. Doesn't last, though, and a thorough clean is needed about three times a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan2273 Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 I have just had to replace on of the intake fans, and it is amazing how much crud was in the other fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hb_Kai Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 I'd like to do this but I'm not sure if the case of my laptop comes off but I can tell by looking at it my keyboard is full of rubbish :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
