    Hi everyone, I need to replace the keyboard on my new x340. Does anyone know, (other than MSI), possible places to order from? Ebay does not have the x340 keyboards available. What would be better is if I could find a compatible keyboard that is actually a little sturdier. The one that came with the notebook is supported by a very thin aluminum plate on the back that is very flexible. I was trying to fix the severe keyboard flex with some double stick tape and I could not get the keyboard to re-seat into the clips. Removing it for the second time damaged several keys. Not sure if the Wind u120 or U100 keyboards would work. Those are widely available on ebay.

    Thanks for any help.
