Spilled water on keyboard and now some keys not working
I have an HP Pavilion dv6-6135dx laptop with Windows 7 that is at least 8 years old.
Last week, I spilled water on the keyboard. I cleaned it up and let it dry out, the computer still works fine now for the most part except a few keys don’t work. If you hit them they throw up another key or command. The keys are “sound down button”, “9”, “O”, “L”, “ . “ They are the only ones not working from what I can tell at least. I ended up purchasing a replacement keyboard and put it in myself with hopes it would solve the issue, but unfortunately it didn’t. The same keys are having issues. I know I could just buy an external USB keyboard but really don’t to do that on such an old laptop and who knows if even that would work. I also went into device manager and “uninstalled” the keyboard and restarted the computer but it didn’t fix it.
Can anyone else give me ideas to try? Thanks.
Это хороший вопрос?

You can try to remove the keyboard and clean with alcohol. If this doesn't work, you will probably have to replace the keyboard.

Joshua, read his question again - he has already replaced the keyboard.
