About Lauren Bennett Expertise I am a computer science major and my dad is an Electric Engineering, so my life has revolved around computers. For as long as I can remember, I have been buying and selling computers. I tend to travel a lot, so I have always had a laptop. I have bought 5 of them for myself, and bought around 30-40 for friends and family. I have dealt with the good and the bad of various version and brand names. If you are in need of buying a laptop, feel free to contact me and I'm sure I will be able to guide you into purchasing the laptop that will be the best fit for you. I will custom build you computers for you to choose from so you can get an exact idea of what to go and buy when you do it yourself and so that you have an exact price. However, I am in the USA and am only knowledgeable about computers here in the US. I do not know about foreign currency or the quality of computer brand names outside the US.

Question Hello,
I have a Dell insparion laptop, running Windows XP. I just got a puppy, and he pee'd on my it! =( So now some of the keys repeat constantly and i have no time to type anything in. (sometimes it stops and i can type stuff using a USB keyboard) I need to know how to disable the attached keyboard. I have tried the BIOS screen. But there is no option for it. If you could help me out I would greatly appreciate it!
Answer It's really easy to remove the keyboard. If you type in something like "Dell Inspiron xxxx keyboard remove" into a Google search you can find very detailed instructions and probably pictures too. If you search on eBay you can find replacement keyboards for a pretty good price. Just make sure it is a Dell one and the seller has good feedback. I've had to replace mine a few times too - once from my puppy! When you go to remove the keyboard, you can see where it plugs in. If you want to keep it in, just put the keyboard back in but don't plug it in.
