Spilled coffee inside PC.

Hi,

so my brother spilled coffee inside PC.
We cleaned it good as possible.
GPU, PSU seems working, even they got most of coffee.
(Tested on old pc)
Motherboard seems not working, CPU and RAMs looked fine (visualy, can't check because old pc is w/ ddr2)

Motherboard blinked mouse laser when we turned PSU on.

How could I know if MB will work in next few days? Or it's dead?

Ty.

if the corrosion does not do too much damage, then it should work in the next few hours

Please immediately remove the power source from your PC until it is properly dried out. Only then can you actually assess the damages. Cleaning it and getting the liquid out was a good idea however attempting to power on the computer right after a spill may have in fact done more harm than good.

It probably would have been fine if you just turned it off and soaked it in isopropyl.
