It is not a complete keyboard. It is a replacement part of the laptop and there is no way to convert it to a stand-alone keyboard according to our local electronic guy. I wish they had advitised it more clearly on the amazon website!BTY, after reading other answers, I guess I interpreted the word "complete" as stand-alone. Otherwise, it does have all the keys of the laptop models specified in the product description.

It is the complete keyboard with ribbon cable. Just unclip the clips along the top edge of the old keyboard and lift up the keyboard to see the ribbon cable. Pull up on the black clip holding the ribbon cable to the motherboard to release it. Reverse all these steps to put the new keyboard back in.

Yes, I bought this and it was the complete keyboard with the attached connector ribbon. I'm typing on it right now.

There probably is a warranty, I do not recall. I always buy another computer instead of fixing one, always seems to be cheaper. Yes, it is a full size keyboard and is backlit. You get a 30 day trial of everything so you will need to purchase Word or what ever you need that you are used to using. I am very happy with my purchase, no complaints at all. Good Luck!

I suppose there could be more than one reason a keyboard would not work. However, in my case it was a glass of red wine. I have the same computer as you and this keyboard worked perfectly. It includes all keys in one assembly. You will need to take the computer almost completely to replace the keyboard.

I ordered this not long ago. Yes it's the entire top part of the laptop. I consider myself pretty normal and I installed it myself... Just take your time. However, if you are afraid of breaking it, I suggest you ask a friend for some help since you will need to remove the keyboard as well. I hope this was helpful.

Yes. But don't buy it. All of them have bug with keyboard, just google it. I regret buying this one.

I have no idea. I can tell you that I have already replaced this keyboard with one that is supposed to be more durable. I ran into a problem with the "E" key not registering each stroke.

I just purchased this model a couple weeks ago and there is no keyboard cover. The keyboard is quite nice compared to other brands I have used, but just make sure you plug in and out the drive a few times before it works.

The answer is the key board quits working and it's hard to get re-started. I'm not very satisfied with the keyboard. The case is nice and serves as some good protection but the keyboard just doesn't work for me. I've only been able to get it to work a couple of times and it takes too much time to bring it back into service once it stops working (probably due to a low battery).

I have not put my keyboard in water to test it, but it is encased in rubber. I'm really very happy with my keyboard.It's just the right size. It fixs right inside my purse.

probably off the sharkoon website or just get some third party keys. BTW, is this keyboard good? i just wanted to know because im starting to build my pc and i want a cheap, but good keyboard. Will this basically fit the standard needs of a regular keyboard and a keyboard to play some light games like minecraft, steam games, ect.? thanks i would love to know.

Although my keyboard worked perfect from the start,sounds like yours is defective. I would return it if i were you. Sorry you had a bad experience.

I've never had any that didn't involve me having spilled drinks into the keyboard. You might want to disassemble it and clean, or if it started when new, it could be a quirk of typing style. I've owned three of these with no issues with key function.

This answer is from a previous review which they initially gave 1 star... The following is a fix for the sticky keys..In a last-ditch effort, I pulled all the primary keys off and used a Q-tip and petroleum jelly to lubricate the slots where all the keys are installed. Once I snapped all the keys back in place....WOW....THIS WAS THE PERFECT KEYBOARD. It now works very smoothly and I still enjoy the benefit of the back-lighting and easy read letters. I wish I had done this easy fix when I first received it.

Has anyone had problems with the keyboard "sticking" on the last letter you typed? (Like thisssssssss)? It also will not do an upper case I--this just started today. Am wondering if I need to return this.

Yes. The keyboard is a magnant. However I don't know if it's damaging or not.

I think it would be better to just buy the whole keyboard to replace your current keyboard in that replacing keys on a laptop is a lot more complicated compared to on a desktop's keyboard. Keep in mind i'm not entirely sure of it myself. :-/ Though I haven't found any issues with the keyboard at the moment.
