I spilled some coke on my PC and I'm trying to figure out what I need to replace.
It was a splash of coke on the top of my PC and after about 5 seconds my PC shut off. When I opened the case I saw 4 or 5 drops inside. I let everything dry and cleaned it thoroughly with 99% alcohol.
I've taken everything out except for the psu, cpu, and cpu fan. If I try and start the PC with just the cpu and mobo plugged into the psu the fans will kind of flicker for an instant and then nothing. If I unplug the cpu the fans will start up for a second or two and lights will come on on the mobo but then nothing.
I was thinking I would probably need to replace the motherboard but now I'm thinking it might be the cpu. It did not look like any coke got near the cpu though.
Any suggestions as to what else I should try to identify my problem?
