Well my housemates and I decided to kick off the beginning of the semester with a house party!

I was using my 5680 as the house DJ and luckily for me someone spilt jungle juice on the right side of the laptop. It hit the right side of the keyboard and right underneath the CD player. I thought I cleaned up most of the mess, but to my demise, my computer doesn't even start anymore!!!

I pulled out my hard drive and checked it out on my roommates identical 5680 and the computer started perfectly with my hard drive. I pulled out my ram and put them back in. And when I push the power button, the fan starts up, the lights turns green for the moment, but then shuts off immediately.

So my options are to send it in to Sager and have the replace my mobo and possibly anything else, or go with the Upgrade option and get the latest GPU, PCU and mobo or even just buy a whole new system.????
