  • In this video, I show features of the HP Envy laptop keyboard keys and how you can safely remove them without breaking the plastic fingers that hold them in.
    Eventually, I got tired of sticky keys and was amazed to find a brand new exact match for my laptop on Amazon for just $60. Just like the OEM keyboard. You need to take your laptop apart to replace the keyboard shell, but it is definitely worth it and I think this is the real deal!

    I used an old hotel key cara - didn’t want to go searching for guitar pics around the house! But it worked like a charm. Much better than using a flat tiny screw driver as suggested by another video. Thank you!!

    My Spectre has the same type of keys, and it was really easy to remove and re-install them! I've spent a year working in a computer shop and this type is much easier and safer than other types!

    EXCELLENT macro close-ups! Now I 100% understand the design and function of the key to cradle to board hooks\interfaces. Yea, that other guy using a screw driver from the side is completely wrong! Will break tab on bottom corner of side he's prying on... And installing your way is the CORRECT way also... 2 THUMBS UP!

    0.6mm crochet hook makes removing the plastic holder super easy. You can get them for a pound or two at a lot of craft stores.

    In case of water spilled over the keyboard how can someone clean it internally?

    Would be nice if you really show closely how to insert the White piece. Impossible to see from far

    Please explain: Is the end of of the hinged piece closest to the user supposed to end up under or over the other half ?

    • @GaryMarkowski
      @GaryMarkowski  Před rokem +1

      At 6:37 in the video, you can see a side view of the hinged piece. Normally, it lies flat, however I am showing what it looks like when it is not flat. The piece with the shorter end (on the left), would be under the other piece when lying flat. The other end (the higher piece on the right) would be on top when lying flat. If you lie this piece flat, you can install this as you see it here, where the right side of the white piece (as pictured here) would first be installed on the top two metal fingers at the top of where the key goes, and then you gently press the lower portion of the hinge down. Note: the lower portion is the left side of the hinge as pictured here.

    Hello there! My hinge is still attached to the key cap, should I remove it

    • @GaryMarkowski
      @GaryMarkowski  Před 10 měsíci

      Be very careful, otherwise you can break it. The hinge is attached to the key cap at the top of the key. You can use a guitar pick to gently lift of the top part of the key cap. Do NOT pull up on the bottom of the key cap. Instead lift up the top part of the key cap and then slide the bottom of the key cap down. Watch the video at 3:30 for an example. Once the top of the key cap is loose, I then "slide" the key cap down and out.

On Amazon, this is $42.99 + $4.99 delivery. It is the real thing! Awesome.
