Hi, I've been reading Grandad's post and thread with intent as this is exactly the same problem I am having, I really hope someone can help as it is driving me crazy!! Many thanks in advance. I have a FS series Sony Vaio and it's out of warranty unfortunately. Model no. VGN-FS315E (with grey keyboard). One of the keys became sticky and eventually came off months ago. Whilst I was able to get away with it for a while this soon became a problem so I got through to Sony customer services and they sent me a new key in the post. It was the black key (so didn't fit with my keyboard!) but I soon realised it wasn't the key I needed really (as I've kept the one that's come off) but the plastic attachment which is in 3 pieces and attaches the plastic key to the 4 metal clips surrounding the squishy pad in the middle (sorry about lack of technical terms!) However, when I was trying to fit this fiddly thing myself I accidentally snapped off one of the tiny metal clips needed to attach the key back on. Annoyingly, the key almost fit - it went back on almost fine, but when you press down on it it isnt quite fitting properly and comes off again. Like Grandad's daughter, I too found out it seemed cheaper to buy a new laptop than get it repaired, but thought it does seem crazy, and who has that much money anyway! After reading the posts I looked for laptop keyboards on ebay that match my model and found some, like this one . However, I'm very confused now as I can't tell if buying a keyboard like this would give me the metal plate underneath as well (I think I have to buy a whole new metal plate to make the whole thing good again - as one of the clips came off?) I'd be very grateful for anyone's help on this as I am completely in the dark about what to do! I'm looking for a job at the moment and totally lost without the laptop! Thanks so much

Hello all ,as far as computers are concerned im a complete novice really so I could really use some help! My wife recently borrowed a friends sd card out of their camera so she could put their photos on our pc, she put the sd card into our own camera and loaded the pics onto the pc , sounds straight forward enough but since doing it any and all photos on our pc flash purple and green even pictures on the web do it . Windows works fine ie the toolbar etc but if its a photo were stuffed . Our friends camera is a 7megapixel camera but ours is only a 5megapixel i dont know if that makes a difference ? The flashing effect on the pics mostly effects the dark areas of the pic. I know there is a genius out there who will just laugh at me and tell me a really simple fix but as i said im a novice at this PLEASE HELP :eek:
