I was on my labtop (Toshiba kind) and my water spilled on it! Now it won't work at all! When I try to get on nothing comes up even though the light that says if it is on or not is on. My mom thinks I might have shorted it. Is there a way to fix this or am I stuck using this huge computer I'm using at the moment?
PPPPLLLLEEEAAASE!!!!! HELP!!!!

Try taking some canned air (like what you'd use to get dust out from the keyboard) and spray some on to your power connection.

I recently spilled some soda on my laptop, but it was just a few drops. Funny thing is, just a few drops kept it from working properly. We ended up wiping up as much as we could (and turning it over to let it drip out), and then just waited a while for things to dry out. Everyhting has been fine since then.
It was on. And it was a LOT of water that spilled on it. If I let it make these weird noises when I first turn it on, it'll let me use it now, but I'm not sure if those noises are good or bad....

Probably not good. A better description and I *might* be able to tell you what itis. When does it make the noises. and what is it doing. on what boot screens?

I can tell you right now, any piece of equipment making noises it ain't supposed to is not a good thing. You might want to have it looked at by a professional.
A few questions:
1. Do you remember where you purchased it? 2. How old is it? (If it is not that old, it might still be under the manufacturer's warranty) 3. Did you, when you purchased it, buy an extended warranty? 4. Do you still have the proof of purchase?

O'siyo, Okay for all you people that are computer 'wizzes' I need some help please I recently received about 5 photos in an email and wanted to post them but, cannot figure out how to get them outta the email Meaning they won't copy and paste, my favourite thing to do I tried sending them to a folder, didn't work, I tried winzip, won't recognize them so I am lost..any help would be greatly appreciated! If nothing else, perhaps I could send them to someone who knows what the heck they are doing and then you could send them back to me so that all I have to do is copy and paste? If that is even possible..sheesh, oh well...maybe I should mention that I didn't have to download them, they just 'appeared' in the email..I really want to post them and share them with O'ginalli's (friends) so if anyone has the time, could you please help this computer dunce? ~~Sty-U
