So i had a small itx build on the table opened and left on the table. my cat came along and mistook it for a high tech litter box.

Her pee pee seems to have mainly hit the memory and mobo.

i let it dry for a few day leaving it powered down

 

The computer booted after that, but it BSODs quite often.

would it help to flush the affected areas in alcohol? and maybe submerge the RAM in alcohol?

or would i just make things worse

here is the build

its an htpc built inside of a minibox

I'm sorry but I couldn't resist.

Your post gave me dem feels...

Worst thing my cats have ever done to my gaming is running across and hitting the PSX original reset button while Gran Turismo endurance's were happening/paused.

 

Also curious about the case, looks awesome for one of my needs down the line.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz
