Notebook with water damage

[Chloeharris99]

I've spilt wine in my laptop yesterday, it worked after and it worked that evening. I left it of over night and now it doesn't turn on. When I press the power button the LED lights on the side flash but nothing happens. Everywhere says to take the battery out but the whole of the bottom of the laptop is screwed in.

Here are some tips on dealing with water damage:  You Just Spilled Water Or Coffee On Your Laptop - Here's What You Should Do

However ... it's most likely that SOME damage was done, regardless of how quickly you turned off the laptop and what you did afterward.

The ONLY way to know for sure is to take or send it to an HP Service Center and pay a LOT of money for them to run full diagnostics on it, and after that, to disassemble it to repair or replace any damaged components.

And, if the motherboard is damaged, the cost of repair can easily exceed the cost of replacing the laptop.

Here is information on the Service Centers:  http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00372730?jumpid=reg_r1002_usen_c-001_title_r0004
