[SOLVED] Is it safe to turn on laptop without keyboard plugged-in ?

[batool110]

Hi.

I have removed the keyboard of lenovo T460s and want to know if it's safe to turn on laptop ?

Laptop is working fine except keyboard where several keys stopped working after I mistakenly spilled tea with sugar on keyboard.

Immediately I unplugged power cable, and turned off laptop using power button.

Now I am in process of fixing keyboard but meanwhile I want to know if its safe to turn on laptop without keyboard ribbon plugged-in? If its safe then I will use USB Keyboard to continue using laptop while I fix or replace the damaged keyboard.

Thanks.

Yes, perfectly fine. Can run it with external peripherals. You can run a laptop w/o screen, keyboard, touchpad, any of the built-in peripherals connected if you have external items connected.
