How to Change the Keyboard on a Siemens Fujitsu 2030

The Fujitsu Siemens 2030 is a budget PC tablet laptop. That means the standard LCD screen can be converted for touch screen use. Even though the screen is slightly different than on standard laptop computers, the keyboard on the Fujitsu isn't any different. It is one unit that connects to the top of the computer via a ribbon cable. If you have a damaged keyboard on your Fujitsu, you can remove and replace it yourself.
