im having trouble with my shoulder and elbow on my left side well i carnt believe today sat with my laptop and a cuppa my arm gave way and the cuppa as gone all over my laptop.

it went off straight away and my daughter as used a hair dryer on it for awhile,now ive turned the fire on and propted it up at the side of it.

does anyone else have any more advise to hopefully save my laptop.

My OH says take the battery out!! Leave it for 24 hours to make sure its dry before recharging it. :unsure: but he doesnt know if this will save the laptop - its worth a try...

Oh God Trish, what a nightmare

Have you got accidental damage cover?

 

[hellybobs]

Pat, Paul says if the power went off straight away you've blown the main power unit and means it possibly knackered.

Let it dry out naturally (take it away from the fire) and take the battery out too and leave for a good 48 hours before trying to turn it on again.

Anything with milk in is a t$&t and thats what causes the damage.

This works

Get a towel and fold it up, put it over the radiator, and set ur lattop on top for a few hours, but make sure the towel it quite thick.

hope tht helps
