Warning: Do not try this on your laptop!

How to destroy your computer without really trying! Do as I do: take a bucket filled with bleach and comet, then carry it over your computer, trip and dump. Make sure all the detergent goes into your keyboard. Then, walk away in disbelief and pretend it didn't happen until you try to use it again.

Surprise! Your computer is destroyed!

Oh that isn't good at all

sorry

No it is not. Just disconnect it and let it dry. The most you can do is to replace the power supply and the keyboard. although there are washable key boards today.

The keyboard i ordered today, but I think the power supply is okay.

Just let it dry. I had computers flooded, with mud in them. I hosed the mud out, let them dry for a couple of days and they worked.

Once I dropped my phone in the toilet bowl... I wrote a story about that...

you mean it didn't wash out all the viruses and other bugs.

That's terrible Carol.

You have the cleanest, most useless keyboard ever Carol. We all do the unthinkable at times.
Infinity M. Apr 23, 2012, 8:23pm UTC

I'll bet you never do THAT again. ;)
Debbie W. Apr 23, 2012, 9:04pm UTC
Well, you were able to tell us about it! Do you have a spare computer???
Vic Damico Apr 23, 2012, 9:06pm UTC
Ouch...I could tell you a story of emptying my coffee cup on my keyboard if that helps...The results with that were not too good, either...Sorry about your PC...

That is terrible.

Thanks for the instructions. Sorry about yours.

Oh my!
Ms. Carol,
My grandson told me, when i spilled coffee on mine, to disconnect the keyboard, turn it over on my lap, with a towel under it, and slap it gently but firmly, several times (as tho spanking it).

Then to let it set upside down.

It seemed to work just dandy after a couple of days, and I now have a back up.

Hopefully replacing the keyboard is all you had to do.
this one my grandson spilled a whole can on Dr. Pepper on....my son took it completely apart...tiny pieces strung out on 2 tv trays...he dried everything and put it back together...worked but I couldn't type.
