Help! Spilled water on Laptop

[livilivi]

I have some queries. My laptop is HP pavilion, It's been almost a week since that happened and apparently it doesnt start up so I guess I'm gonna send it for repair?
Anyone happen to know the approximate price to repair for HP?
I actually thought its as good as dead since its in contact with liquid.
Thank youuu.

Take out battery, put in rice for a week. Pray it starts

The first thing I would do if that ever happens is to take the battery out.

Then open the laptop and get as much of the parts exposed to a fan and let it run for around 3 days.

If you know who LinusTechTips is, he saved his dell laptop after being exposed to rain one day. Video here - http://youtu.be/tASvbnODtq4

Hopefully the liquid isn't coke or coffee...

If you purchased the HP Accidental Damage Protection, it should be free, subject to one accident per year.

Yup.. I hate it when this kinda **** happens.. here's hoping it only needs some repair work.. Oh and welcome to the forum

Hey all, thanks for the reply. I've decided to move to the repairing process already because i did let it dry as much as possible. Took out battery too. Yeah so I'd rather send it for repair. Its been a week so I kinda give up trying on my side lor /:

If u have a hair dryer use it..turn it on at low heat n blow it at the affected areas. Take out the battery if u can and also try to dismantle as much as u can so that u can blow it dry easier n wipe them dry. Dry it up as much as u can n leave 1 or 2 days without switching it on. After a few days try to on it again.

Done this a few times in my previous job, got spilled coffee lah, tea lah, fruit juice lah managed to resurrect them.

Hope u have success. I cant guarantee this will resurrect ur laptop tho.

Why want to pursue maths if you got no passion? By the time you work for 1-2 years, you will find where your interest lie. So not to worry. Choose wisely. If not you might regret.

TS should learn a lesson from this episode not to place water near laptop, it is a damaging and expensive process.

Well, accidents happen /: Thanks anyways, I'd be more careful after this incident of course.
