K, so I turn on my iBook. It takes a while for it to show the blue screen, and then it just sat there. After a few minutes, the screen turned black for a few seconds, then turned blue again and showed the file-logo, and it it it keeps switching between the finder-logo and a question mark. After doing that for some minutes, it just turned off.

I haven't dropped it or anything, I actually haven-t used it for weeks. Now it just won't turn on.

Anything I can do? Thanks in advance.

It might seem simple, but we see an incredible amount of people post here about spills. Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!
