    My old keyboard on my T500 broke and I got a warranty replacement. I installed the new one they sent me no problem, but for some reason there is a minor bubble on the palm rest that causes the arrow keys in the bottom right to get clicky (more so than before or the other keys). If I push that palm rest down it they won't make the sound, but I don't want to always push it down.

    I've re-installed the keyboard and tightened all the screws and done everything I can think of. It wasn't like this when I got it from the factory so something must be up.

    Any ideas on what else I can try to get the palm rest to stick down and prevent the clicking sound?

    Cheers
