Alrighty,

This one is a little odd. On my tiny laptop(sharp actius ultraportable), the space bar key sticks and is hard to use. Half the time it doesnt work unless I hit it real hard, and it also often sticks. I have looked inside the mechanics and called sharp and theres really not a solution to it as far as fixing it.

I was wondering if there would be a way to remap the keys so i could asssign some other button the space bar function? do you think this would work? what button would u assign?

does anyone else have any other ideas? i really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Try SuperLube brand dry silicone lube. This stuff worked for me on a Sony Vaio lappy with the left CRTL key. Good Luck!
