Incident: spilled water on my desktop tower. Water went down my motherboard as I was rushing to the psu to disconnect power. Before I was able to pull the plug, I could hear beeps and sounds of USB connect and disconnect tones.
I began the fix by opening everything up and disassembling/cleaning/ reassembling. After drying off for a day under a fan. I powered back on. Everything acted like it was going to boot up for about 3-4 sec then it shut down. So, rinse and repeat (this time i even pulled the CPU and cussed at it a little.. and then apologized with a kiss). After everything was put back together I rebooted. Everything reboots great and seems stable but monitor (VGA/DVI) connection, and all USB ports. When I plug in my mouse I see my mouse LEDs come on for about half a second and then dead again. I've been cleaning and drying for about 4 hours now and still having the same problem.
Suggestions? What part do I have to kiss now?? Lol
Note: USB ports on front of tower do the same thing with mouse
