you want me to change the keyboard on your laptop over the internet?

I would recommend formatting the hard drive, installing a fresh English copy of Windows and starting from scratch. If you don't speak Spanish you have a difficult task ahead of you. ~ Or you could hold it up to the monitor and maybe we could see what is wrong.
3 :
call acer and tell them its broken. If they will tell you its your fault and they won't fix it then throw it out the window or sell it

VAT will be collected at the standard rate, plus any import duties, plus a brokerage fee. The only way to avoid the VAT and duty is to carry it with you and not declare it upon entry into Spain. That would be illegal, though

If you're in a built up area or an area where there are some wireless networks within range, you might be able to pick up a wireless signal and connect to a network. However, you can only do this if the network is unsecured (i.e not password protected).
2 :
My best guess is look for an internet cafe (sometimes they will have wireless), or stay in a hotel with free wireless internet access. Maybe their libraries will have free wireless, too. I've never been to Spain, so these are just some ideas
