    Hi guys,

    I really need some help here.

    I have a Advent 8555gx/MSI GT725. Most of the keys on my keyboard have stopped working. I've been trying to fix this myself as PC World want £279 to fix it!

    Please can you help with the following:

    1) Are there any guides on how to remove the keyboad?

    2) Can anyone advise what the replacement keyboard is?

    3) Where can I buy the replacement keyboard?

    Thanks in advance!

    Liam

    Thanks for your reply.

    Although the problem is that I'm based in the UK and that shops appears to be US based.

    I want to try and fit it myself as I've been quoted prices which would mean its cheaper to buy a new laptop.
