Hope there's no long lasting damage to the laptop! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-poured-coke-on-my-laptop#post-669711 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 23:22:21 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 669711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so sorry. I accidentally spilled bitters on my laptop (no one to blame but myself) and the track pad stopped working for a while. It recovered though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-poured-coke-on-my-laptop#post-669707 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 23:18:57 +0000 skibobrown 669707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You should turn it off immediate and put it in a bowl of dry rice for at least 24 hours. Liquid damage can take time to show up...<br /> (Also, I totally feel your pain b/c DD dumped a bowl of cereal on DH's laptop a while back.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-poured-coke-on-my-laptop#post-669703 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 23:17:02 +0000 StbHisMrs 669703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dh had a coke in the livingroom that I caught her grabbing earlier, so I moved it into the kitchen thinking that was a better place for it! I was using my laptop to cook with a recipe, she has a chair she likes to push around the kitchen and she apparently pushed it close to the can. I turned around to grab the chicken and watched her pour half a can of coke onto my keyboard. I wanted to cry. </p> <p>I tried to take it apart but failed, it seems to be working ok though. She is so naughty lately. I had just cleaned all of our cabinets with minwax and mopped the floors on Sunday. Now they're a sticky mess as is the counter. Yuck! </p>
