Perhaps something stuck under the keyboard       before the mylar membrane that could be causing it to contact. I'm surprised       it isn't beeping at you        constantly from a sticky key. Also check to see that nothing is shorting       beneath the motherboard around that 8048 and J3/J4 and J7.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
