Hello everyone.

 

My first topic on the website and it's a nagative one. Long story short, less than two weeks ago I flooded my laptop with thea. Sweet-sour thea. It went almost immidietly black. After a short time LED that signify that a batery is full went also black. And the battery was full. I tried to do whatever the tips on the internet said but I think I was to slow. I left it to dry for about 4 days. Tried tu turn it on and nothing. By the power plug you could smell of something burning. Then I became entirely hopeless. Today one of my firends had an idea to just look in and see what was broken.

 

I've taken are a few photos. If someone would like it in a better resolution just say and I try my best.

 

What I would like is to know how broken is it en of is there any point of reparing it. Thank you all in advance.

 

 

P.S. If my english is not the best, it's because I'm polish. Feel free to correct me. I gladly learn more.

I would say the mainboard is likely toast, however,  you may be able to save the hard drive, the ram (possibly) and that may be it, if it has a Windows sticker with a CDKEY you should write that down, may come in handy later.
