Title: Spill
Post by: kickass on September 18, 2006, 11:05:54 AM
Hi all,

Somebody really stupid spilled coffee on my laptop today. My touchpad and headphone/mike ports have stopped working. The same stupid person also forgot to turn off the computer after the spill. Any tips?

THanks

you can try taking out the keyboard and take a look at what the damage was underneath, but I would wait until you are sure it dried fully since you could just end up spreading the liquid further.  I had a small problem with my headphone jack a while back and it was caused by a look ribbon cable.  I would check the ribbon cables to make sure they are dry and seated.
