Thinkpad T400 & Red Wine

Hi guys,

I desperately need an advice regarding my T400. Yday we had a little accicent with wine spilt on and in the laptop when it was turned on. After i noticed what happened i turned it off, wiped the keyboard, took out the battery and tried to dry the space around.. somehow the liquid got there inside the machine.

Today i tried to turn it on. What happens is that the battery indicator flashes few times red:mad::mad::mad:, then remains red:mad: (when charger plugged in or not). I can hear the cooling working quite loudly, CD/DVD slot opens, but no other reaction. I turned it off again, and repeated once more with no progress.

Is there any chance to save my data (save me from having to do the job again and getting a new machine)?

Thanks a lot for yr advice.

I promise no more parties with my machine on the kitchen table:eek::rolleyes:
