Basicall my dog knocked over a glass of milk and it went all over my laptop while my brother was using it.

it turns on and everything.

its just the keyboard types on its on and stuff.

does it just need drying out more.

or is it fudged?

Thanks..

Could be the milk creating connections, If your lucky the keyboard will just pop off and the main part of the laptop will be ok.

What laptop is it?

I think you can with that one, the keyboards usally just need prying a little.
bit awkward to explain, but i would use a small screwdriver to push the keyboard back so the front clips come out, it should then come off.

What model of laptop is it. Normally laptops has a metal sheet below the keyboard just incase something gets spilt on them, unless its a very old laptop. Leave it for a day to dry out completely and see what happens.

If it it still naffed after thay you might get away with a new keyboard (bitch to fit unless you know how) or could be that liquid has gone down into the mainboard and fried a few of the circuits

Hope that helps
