I see on the bottom of it that it has a latch sort of mechanism, how is that used? Its not broken at all it's just fallen off and i dont see how it can go back on, no plastic is broken. I dont know if there's a website for this but a pointin the right diraction would be awsome. BTW it's the Z key, if it makes any difference.

If it doesn't snap back into position, then probably it is broken.

What about hot glue?

Nothing is broken on the key or the keyboard socket. It looks liek it has a clamp device or something that needs to be inserted perfectly. Ill post pictures later.

naw i never did, i just live with it. My dad is going to take the laptop in to get the USB ports repaired becasue they got shoved back so now their useless. Sorry i never posted pics but the only camera i have is on my Cell and i dont want to get another 50$ bill 8O like last month. My dad has a Canon EOS 20D, i dont know how to use it but i also thought you guys would appreciate not having a 20mb photo to load to see the problem. 8)
