i jus got it to come on and function for about 2 mins then it just randomly shut off. when i pressed to power button to turn it back on it was like it resumed where I was but the backlight wasnt on so I could bairly tell that it was even on. It sounds like faulty hardware to me. But would it be the processor or the whole motherbored or what?

I have spilt a lot things into a my keyboard. I always jus took it apart an cleaned it up good. there are 3 film like things in there sandwiched between two metal plates. You got to take out a bunch of screws to get to em. Washed them, cleaned all the things I could. Put it all back together and it worked fine. Aint never been inside a laptop but I'm sure those film like things are in there for the keyboard. Clean it up Country an see what happens. 🙂
