Water in my laptop

[reggie_da_man]

If it was running when the water was spilled on it you're probably screwed, as their would likely be massive shorting, etc... with the motherboard. If it was off, you might stand a chance by letting it thoroughly dry out.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

water is naaaaasty stuff. No one realizes what it actually does on the chemical level; being a polar model. for instance salt; literally rips it in 1/2. but yes water and electronics are most definetly worst enemies.

and I think Gaara spilled somthing on his motherboard but quickly dried it and it turned out fine too

That's a different story though, that was a small leak that occured with a nonconductive noncorrosive fluid, and I knew exactly where the fluid got on the hardware

This is a conductive fluid that sounds like it got splashed all over the computer and the dude can't even identify where it may have gone...even worse this is a laptop which no doubt has a lot more complex electrical work in it than a desktop
