Following a liquid spill on my ASUS N76VM, the keyboard stopped working. It has been 10 days, and having tried to clean and dry as much as possible, I have turned the laptop back on,

I uninstalled the internal keyboard software, and am currently using the laptop with a USB keyboard and mouse without any problems. Is this possibly a long term solution, or should I proceed with an expensive repair from the laptop vendor?
