I'm experiencing a lag with final cut. I spilled some water on my computer. It's only when the video renders.

I just started doing **** with it yesterday and it seems to be the only problem. I'm splicing up a lot of clips to make it run faster hopefully.

Did you do the necessary amount of drying after the water spill? Usually any liquid spilling on a computer will harm all sorts of things, but I can't imagine that it's affecting just one application or functionality..

What does "spliciing up a lot of chips"??

Was Final Cut working better before the water spill and is that the only thing that has happened?

I did like two things before. Not doing much more.

I dried it. Time machine isn't backing up but I specifically told it not to so that could be me or a corrupted hard drive? Splicing up video for final cut. About to try that.

What is the necessary amount of drying? It seemed to spill on the keyboard I freaked out and got a towel. I'm thinking about trying a bag of rice.
