I took all of the keys off my Compaq Presario CQ57 laptop to clean underneath. I then put all the keys back on but about ten keys won't go back on.

 

Keys are the one above tab, several F keys, caps lock and the enter key.

 

There are no missing pieces. I am at my wits end because they either don't stay on at all or they go on squint! Please help.

Hi:

 

See if watching the video for your applicable key type at the link below helps.

Didn't help regards to my enter key. it is a large key with two bits of hooked wire underneath. Seems to help for other keys though.

Also I can't find the videos showing how to put them back.

Here is the main page.

 

Search around it.  I believe the G-series is the same as the CQ series but check the other HP models.
