I’ve had luck in the past buying individual keys on eBay. Of course, you may not be so lucky, but it’s worth a try!

Thanks for answering my question!

Ferdinan:
That sounds like an amazing deal, I should check my local stores some more.

Erlis:
As I said to Ferdinan, I should check my local stores a bit more(and mainly ask).

Dalsan:
Thanks for the site! If I can’t find it at any store that’s closeby, I’ll definitely check that out

Paul:
That idea is amazing, sadly it won’t work for me, since only the Backspace and Shift keys have the same size as my Enter key.

Once again, thanks to you all for your answers, this has been great help!

Find two keys you never use. Move them to where your keys are missing. Buy a set of keyboard stickers and put them over your now wrongly labeled keys.

Here are the keyboard stickers sold on Amazon: http://amzn.to/Pp6uBI

They are very cheap.

My friend laptop keyboard missed 2-3 keys, and they replaced all the keyboard!
The problem lies like this:
If you have a problem with some buttons circuits, probably it can’t be fixed, and the whole keyboard must be replaced sometimes…
As you said, this is not your problem..
The other thing is, that if you miss some keys, most of the repair shops, replace those keys only (so ask for one).
And if you can’t find one, then find an old keyboard, and take it from there, and try to replace them by yourself!
If nothing of this works for you, then, replace all your keyboard! (It will be the only way left…)

if you bring it to a computer store which sell and repair HP then they can fix it for you, of course you must pay for it, but it will not cost a lot, since it is not a major/big problem which affect the entire of your computer. 1 week ago i fixed my laptop which lost one of its key and i just pay only $2.
