PC Lenovo

[Senzo]

My PC once got in contact with bicarbonate of soda (powder) it was all over the motherboard now I cleaned it coz it did t wanna function properly coz the battery wouldn't even last 30mins ,now it  has shutdown. At first I thought it was my battery but it's not ,what I realised is that there is this slimy part inside which I think it is part of the laptop it's in a small square and the other rectangular shape, there are 2 of them but the other one got finished and I just wiped it off with a cloth ...My questions is ,what can I do and what do you think the problem is ??

is it thermal paste or a thermal pad? is it directly on the cooler touching the CPU?

Probably, all you can do is buy a new one. Maybe next time don't wait before cleaning it, and better yet don't get random stuff smeared on it in the first place.

 

Do you have a picture of the motherboard?

Quite sure you just got off the thermal paste. You could try and (First clean it completely ofcourse) apply some thermal paste, Not too much. There's plenty of guides online. I also think your laptop dying after 30 mins is a combination of the 2. Your processor (where that goo was) Is probably getting quite hot. Which will make your cooling go harder. along with a faulty battery could result in bad battery life. I'd try those things before buying a new laptop. But if that doesnt work then it might very well be a good idea to just buy a new 1.
