I say back up everything now and keep an eye out for any problems. </p> <p>I spilled vitamin water on my laptop a few yrs ago and thought it was fine initially - then two days later it completely died on me :( i would def back up everything as soon as you can </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dropped-laptop-now-what#post-1039700 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 12:17:47 +0000 ktdid23 1039700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a pretty dumb question...</p> <p>I left my laptop out on the coffee table, plugged in. While we were gone, my dog somehow (wtf) managed to pull the laptop off the coffee table and drag it about a foot away from the table. It was closed, but in sleep mode, and the cord was still plugged into the computer but not into the wall.</p> <p>When I saw it there on the floor, I was instantly thrilled that I bought the Geek Squad 1 year protection plan. The computer turned on fine and everything looked ok. I turned it off and a few minutes later turned it back on. Everything seems ok. I backed up the minimal stuff I had on there with Dropbox. </p> <p>Is there anything specific I should look for, damage-wise? There are no cracks anywhere, screen seems ok, it turns on.... </p> <p>Has this happened to anyone with no long-term issues to the computer? </p>
