A quality laptop?

Isn't it still under warranty? You should send it back and get them to replace the keys. It shouldn't start falling apart in only seven months, no matter how much you use it. I only use Apple computers and have no complaints at all. That said, my daughter's laptop had to have a new screen. But we took that into the Apple Store in Southampton and it was back in a couple of days, repaired free under the guarantee. I should get onto Dell or whoever you bought the laptop from today and raise merry hell with them. Good luck.

Hi Maxima,

Which model of dell laptop you have. Dell has highly qualified trainers and just ask them for entire keyboard replacement. You can always stick the keys with glue but take care for laptop because its entire system is present underneath your keyboard. Dont over glue it then it becomes a sticky key which gives you lot more trouble than the existing one.

Hi Maximmax8, If the laptop is only 7 months old I would take it back as it should be under warranty and get them to replace the whole thing. It is likely if one has broken more will so better to do this now rather than wait and realise warranty has expired. My daughters both have Hewlett Packard and one is a few years old now and we have had no problems at all with those so if I were thinking of getting one myself that is the make I would go for. Good luck. I hope they swap it over for you. Ellie:D

If you send it back to the shop they will just glue it on. They are just pressed on and very seldom does that happen, but like anything else it is possible. Just get some good glue and press it back on where it goes. It should not effect the performance in any way. I have never encountered that with any of my laptops (On my third one). Maybe that was the part they outsourced.:)

So far, I have been using Dell notebooks and have no problem with the keypad. The keypad should be able to change. It is just a board which can be removed and replaced.

Hi maximax8! I have a Dell laptop too but it is already 3 years old I think. One of its buttons fell off too but my husband just snapped it back in its place. I guess yours is different from mine because your laptop is new edition than mine.
Take Care and God Bless! Happy Mylotting!

I´ve now my second laptop from Dell,and it works good.
But my first one,had some missing buttoms.
I don´t know why they are jumping away.

Either call the company where you bought the laptop if it's under warranty and have them fix it. That's what I would do.

I have had my laptop for over a year and nothing has gone wrong with it in that time. All the buttons are secure even though my 2 year old grandson has used it for his writing and he can be heavy handed.
I don't normally advertise but it is a Hewlett Packard and it is the best laptop I've seen.

I wouldnt buy a dell for sh*t!!! sorry!!! First off they used to sell them online and by phone only saying the reason they are cheaper is because they had not got the overheads and reversed that earlier this year because they cant compete and are now available in all main stream electrical stores. Personally I have an HP compaq which is probs the best laptop Ive ever had - all keys in place
