Hello,
I have just spilled a cup of soup into my laptop keyboard. I immediately powered off removed the power lead and battery. Opened up the case and removed most of the components down to the main circuit board, however apart from the keyboard tray there was only a couple of small drips on the main board beside where the battery connects. I have now cleaned and dried the area where the drips were and cleaned the keyboard and left it over night in a warm place.
Now it's back together when I press the power on button, the power light comes on and the hard drive light blinks for a split second and then both go out and nothing happens! Is it possible i have damaged the battery of main power supply circuit. If so is it worth getting a 2nd hand Dell D630 laptop and swapping my hard drive to recover the data and then use it for part to attempt to fix mine?
Any suggestions much appreciated
