    I think the coffee i spilled on keyboard ruined it, i am getting random characters on the screen with out even pressing them. I was wondering if replacement keyboards are available for z70va, i did a search online and i did not find any. anybody know where i can buy one from.

    thanks.

    1. LET IT DRY OUT. You might kill your computer otherwise. Let it be for three-four days. Try it afterwards. I can imagine there are all kinds of shorts in the keyboard if it's wet, keys make contact, they send codes to the controller...
    2. They are probably available, if anywhere, on the ASUS eStore.

    Try searching for Z70 or M6 keyboard. I tried myself, but found nothing. The nearest thing is:

    Maybe it fits, make sure about it before ordering.

    But first, maybe it snaps out of it once it dries out.

    I agree with E.B.E... let it dry out. Try to disconnect the keyboard and reconnect it once it has dried.

    If that doesn't work, try the link that E.B.E posted... it looks like it would fit the Z70 series.
