Taupey, my laptop's booting, and I'm heating him up so the Coke dries up. Sadly, I don't have a blow dryer or something like that. I'll overwork my laptop till he heats up. Hope it works.

You should let it dry on its own, Big D. If anything seeps in while it's running, it'll be shot.

Also, getting some spray cleaner (for electronics) is a good idea.

I'm still trying. At this point, it still isn't. I'll wait until tomorrow, and if it doesn't work, tough luck for me.

opening it up and turning it upside down so the keyboard can drain may help. it may cause problems in future if the coke corrodes anything inside.

I'm trying that already. I'll wait until tomorrow and see if my "baby" will work again. If not, as I've said, I'm screwed at best.

There's still hope though. When I was 14. I had grape juice AND soda spilt on the same laptop (not on the same day, and it wasn't even me who spilt it!) but it survived. miraculously. 8O It was just very sticky. xD

I hope luck or God can make this thing work. If not, guess I'm doomed at best.
