Water damage to computer parts....
« on: April 19, 2003, 11:26:49 PM »
As anywone who frequesnt the forum between 2:00 am and 4:00 am EST time will ,now, I posted a lot dtoing t while durkn.  What they gmight not now, is that I spilled about 1/2 liter of water all over my secondary (burner/old) compter.  Now, most of it went in the moniter, which was off.  But some when in the keyboard and mouse area.. so my qauestions is this.  All was off (it\'s a secondary computer remember), but how long should I wait for it all to dyr out before powering up that computer now... 1 day, 2 day, 5 day?  I\'m thinking like tomorow ieveneing.. but what do you thinkg.... shouldnt\' be any damanbge/shoring cause there was NO power to spilled on componoeds when I ddi it.

Longer u wait better of you will be.


My brother split coke all over my old pc.. Got inside the case and everything. Took me days to clean the crap out.. It\'s running fine even today and it\'s atleast 3 to 4 years old. :)  Just make sure there\'s not water sitting in the base of your monitor. That wouldn\'t be good.

Twas an old monitor.... I opened it up today (didn\'t need to, but I\'ve always wanted to).  Dryed out the small pool that was way at the bottom....  Put it back together... it\'s working fine.
