How to Salvage a Wet Laptop

1. Quickly disable the power supply
2. Immediately we obtain a battery
3. Pour liquid - simply inverting laptop (usually a liquid spill on the keyboard);
4. If liquid has been spilled a little, simply leave to dry. It is not necessary to do a hair dryer or put on the battery, simply leave the table. To dry it is not less than one day. Do not try to connect the battery or to include a laptop, during this time.

Further recommendations: as a rule to an end, so that we have a laptop to a service center. But it is possible that a bear in the service center and not have to. Much depends on how much and what kind of liquid you spilled on the laptop and on your courage and skills to repair. Again, if you climb into the laptop, something you do, but it does not work, and as a result of bear "corpse" in the service center - be sure and tell the truth, that you simplify life for ourselves and for engineers.

Laptop not start.

These words must mean one thing - your laptop does not respond to pressing the start button, ie does not start spinning the cooler, do not light any bulbs, roughly speaking, as if in front of you is not the computer, and brick with a "sham" button. In standing off the battery indicator may like to burn, and be passive. This fact in describing the faults worth mentioning. The reasons for such behavior can be many:
1. burnt out power supply and battery of the village, non-operating or non-existent.
2. no contact to the power connector on your laptop or in the power supply;
3. no firmware BIOS;
4. problem in an internal power supply on the motherboard. There may be many variations, short-circuit (hereafter CP) in the supply circuits or batteries, a fried chip supply.

No initialization.

The team in the following behavior: when you press the power button starts to spin cooler and does not stop, rotate constantly at high revs, indicator lights and activate the button CaspLock, NumLock, etc. not die out, the further it will not download, the monitor does not light up.Possible variations of the indicators, but one is the reaction of the cooler, no image, no flashing indicator hdd. This defect is not to be confused with the lack of images on the matrix. So, the reasons:

1.otsutstvuet processor or memory;
2. bad firmware BIOS;
3. non-working northbridge notebook.

Reboot or shutdown during initialization bios.

Not to be confused with restarts during the boot process. Here, clearly describe the behavior of a laptop is difficult, but possible reasons include:

1. overheating southbridge
2. CPU overheating
3. lack of power with power supply
4. problems with the bios.

No boot from hdd or can not see hdd.

Not to be confused with "no loading OS". Note that in this defect, in contrast to the previous ones, almost always go to the BIOS. Behavior, fit into this problem, too diverse. All can hang on the intro bios, can always move attempts to boot from the network card, to give just a black screen with a cursor or to say that it is not systemic. In this case, the reason is:

1. disk;
2. Southbridge laptop.

No OS boot, restart the laptop during the boot process.

Restarting usually due to viruses, sometimes simply because of the failure OS. Often easier to rearrange than trying to fix. I think that there is more or less clear, and explain how and what to do. Either set from scratch, or fill, or are looking for reasons lost or does not boot.

No power from the network.

This problem may be a special case of a defect "does not include". Clearly, in this case, you and the battery is not charging, but the laptop can be up and running, but from a battery, in this case, it is clear that in Windach this will be discussed, at least, the battery is discharged.Reasons:

1. problems in the power connector or with a laptop power supply;
2. problems with internal power supply.

Laptop not charging the battery.

Indicates that the mains power goes. Windows displays the power of the network, but is not there a charge (that's a). This defect does not mean that you necessarily non-operating battery, but it is also possible. Reasons:

1. non-operating battery;
2. problems with internal power supply;
3. lack of power external power supply.

Not running on battery power or battery is not working.

There must be clearly understood that "not running on battery power" means that in the absence of external power supply laptop does not turn on, it does not mean that the notebook runs 5 minutes, then turn off.
most non-operating battery (in this case, mostly battery and not infected);
problem in an internal power supply.
