How do you disable the keyboard

I have a PCV - W1. The keyboard is acting up - possibly because I split a couple of spots of coffee on it. I have bought an external keyboard which works ok except at start up. I think that a key is stuck on the integrated keyboard.

Is there a way of disabling the integrated keyboard ? Will this resolve the start up problem ?

Many thanks

Norman

Unfortunately there is no software solution. You need to physically disconnect the ribbon that connects to the motherboard, but I have no idea how to achieve this on your model.

i have to say again it's hard or easy depends on ur DIY knowledge. As Rich912 said, you need to unscrew the keyboard outside layer so that u can remove the connection between the keyboard and the motherboard. Only that will help u to pretends the sticky key on the start up..

I can show u on My M1 Keyboard but V1 and W1 model.. i didn't encounter this before..
