...to put the battery back in. I'd suggest taking the outer casing off and clean it out better.
Last night my dog decided to throw up on my laptop keys. I wont go into detail but it wasn't all that liquidy. But I went head and wiped it down but in the process of doing so I pressed alot of random keys. After that I didn't touch the laptop again until the next morning. For some reason the keyboard was not working. The touchpad and power button did but nothing else. I tried updating the laptop, updating hardware, ext. But nothing worked. Last thing I did was took the battery out but now it won't turn on at all. Any help?
What I think might have happened:
1. Some of the vomit got into the laptop and damaged it?
2. While I was pressing random keys I shut something down or whatever?
I don't know why it's not powering on now. I (obviously) don't know if the keyboard is fixed or not since it's off. All I did was take the battery out and put it back in. Am I doing something wrong?
I'm not much of a technical person. Sorry if I sound like a noob (Cause I am!)
