    Earlier this morning dr.pepper spilled all over my laptop. AT first it was fine ( should have turned it off immediately) but then the screen went black and eventually the power went off. Since then I have taken everything out, dried all parts, and tried to turn it back on. The power is now on but the screen is completely black. I noticed when i took the keyboard apart there was a wire coming out from the screen thats not connected to anything. Not sure if thats a problem, but im just putting it out there. Please give solutions on how to fix it! Obviously if it can go on its not completely fried

    There are so many things that could be messsed up with this....

    Powering on and having fans come on doesn't neccesarily mean anything. I'd bring it into a shop to take a look at it.

    Try plugging in an external monitor to the laptop to see if it comes up on there. The wire coming from the LCD may be the connector to the video on the system board, if its not connected you wont get anything on the lcd.
