    Aspire One ZA3 Netbook Keyboard ~ Spilled Water

    Hi! I have an old Acer Aspire One Netbook ZA3 model running Windows XP. It's many years old and all that we've ever used it for was to run iTunes for our show sound system. It's always been great for this purpose. Anyway, long story short, I spilled water in the keyboard before a show, couldn't shut it down as we needed it for our music, tipped it upside down, dumped as much water out as possible, shook it, blew on it, etc. and it basically worked fine except for the keyboard. No function at all but the netbook worked fine for many years using a mouse. Lately, the mouse is starting to not function correctly. I'm wondering if the keyboard and now mouse issue is solely a Motherboard issue or could it also be the keyboard as well asl the motherboard? I found replacement Mother boards on ebay for like $25. Would replacing the Mboard do the trick most likely or would I also need to replace the keyboard and is there any way to test this other than installing a new motherboard? Thanks in advance! PS I know I can probably pick another one up for $100 but this one has a lot of sentimental value to it and I'd like to try and get it back up to it's original sub-par performance if at all possible
