ok, i am not very domestic...i attempted to clean my laptop this morning, used nail polish remover (ingredients water, acetone, propylene gycerol...and many other chemicals) and i wiped the touch pad u use to control the pointer...now, it doesn't work, like it has lost its sensitivity-is it because of the nail polish remover?? any way to fix it or will i have to buy a mouse?

you blew it. and please do not use water on your laptop. they make spray cleaners specifically for electronics. make the investment. very cheap in the long run

So, your laptops is working suitable its basically the keyboard suitable? Then basically purchase a clean keyboard, like a working laptop or workstation one, and plug it in. it's going to be extra value-effective to do it that way than to swap the workstation keyboard itself, of direction you may yet workstation keyboards themselves are low-priced its basically you will likely take it to a fix shop the place they're going to can charge you around $one hundred, once you may basically purchase a 5-10 dollar workstation keyboard.

I think you wrecked it. Next time try cleaning it with water and a cloth. If it doesn't work you will probably have to buy a new mouse. SORRY.

Hi. I think you would like a USB wireless mouse better anyway. (No comment on the cleaning technique!)

May have messed it up. It's not a good idea to use all kinds of chemicals on these things.
