Tech 425 3,942 Report post Posted August 31, 2014 Good question - Do you have a multimeter? You will have to take the netbook apart and disconnect the power surply form the motherboard and check it power is coming though. My guess is this is what went bad as it was pluged in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Grumpy 768 Report post Posted September 8, 2014 I would say the same. It would have depended on how dry everything was and can take days to dry totally even if put into a bowl of rice as a desiccant. I suppose I'm lucky but have done something similar to 2 different laptops including a 4 day old Macbook Pro. The only thing with the first was 2 keys that didn't work so a new keyboard fixed that and just the occasional sticky button on the Macbook and that's probably due to the drink being a milkshake. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
