Ah welcome to my world! I got some idea what you might have done here. Tell me what keys have no AF and what one's do. I can then tell you what ic's have gone if any. Did you hit the AF connecter board on the top of the psu? If your geting some notes with full AF you may have joined some legs together when putting the 0.1 caps on. Let us know all the faults and I will help you out as I am working right though the Christmas holiday anyway.
