Laptop keyboard repair
The keyboard on my Acer laptop has some keys that no longer register when I use it. The laptop still runs fine so I'd rather repair it then spend money on a new one. What are some good local shops for getting it fixed?
Thanks!

what kind of acer laptop?
some are really easy to replace and can be DIY as you just need to take off a trim on top of the keyboard and loosen 3 screws.

I've repair many laptops with keyboard issues before. It's as easy as popping off the keyboard via screws or tabs, find the part number, go online and buy a replacement, all the while use an external keyboard during the shipping times. Depending on the keyboard, most will set you back $50.

You can bring it in to GeekSquad (bestbuy) for them to take a look, they may be able to order in the parts for it

Buy a replacement keyboard. Cheap and easy. Look at you youtube video to install.
