InstantNoodles Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 My keyboard finally died. After nearly 20 years, it finally kicked the bucket... This keyboard has been with me for nearly 5 years, and with my cousin, more than 13 years. This keyboard helped me out so much. I hate using my laptop keyboard because the fan overheats it, so the z-board was always welcomed since I no longer need to type on overheated buttons. It was a big keyboard, but i loved it. Whenever i carried my laptop in one hand, in the other would be this huge keyboard. The z-board was dying slowly while i was using it (buttons wouldn't work at times, thinks the space button is the Enter button) but no matter what, it still lasted. After a few minutes, it would work perfectly again. It's probably the most reliable keyboard i ever had. But now it went the way of Old-Yeller, and had to be finally put down. Before locking it away in the storage room i want to give it one last ode. Ode to my Z-Board Oh poor Z-board How long you lasted over the years How you made PC gaming pleasant with easy hot keys And the many key sets, making gaming comfortable Oh Poor Z-board How you were always with me Even when i have to abuse you In 10mans in CSS Or entire raids in WOW Oh poor Z-board How reliable you were No matter what damages you took Always continue to work As if you were newly made Oh Poor Z-board How you passed away so After 2 decades of PC gaming Now you can finally rest In the big computer in the sky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InstantNoodles Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share Posted March 31, 2012 Yes! I manged to fix my keyboard. I unscrewed it and took it apart. What happend was that some liquid, what im guessing is spilled soup, got into the circuit board. So i cleaned up the liquid and tested it out. The keyboard still didnt work and i was about to ask HG for help but after a second attempt at cleaning the liquid with rubbing alcohol, It's fixed! :DDD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
