help! spilled on my laptop!
Fri night I spilled a Long Island all over my laptop (i know, I know). It was on at the time, didn't shut off. I turned it upside down right away, wiped it off (on the outside), turned it off, and then turned it back on (i learned later this was a bad idea). It turned back on fine, and everything seemed to be fine, so I turned it off and went to bed.
The next morning, however... it didn't turn on. The little green light on the charger was not on, either. I followed some advice and took out the battery and unplugged it and have just been letting it sit.
I tried turning it on today (so about 48 hours later), and it's still not turning on. Should I start panicing yet?
My boyfriend said he would help me take it apart and clean it. I've heard rubbing alcohol is not ok to use, instead we should use "denatured" alcohol. Does anyone know anything about this or have any advice on cleaning it out?
Also, I was just wondering if anyone has heard of a similar story and what the chances are that the computer's dead to the world...?
