[QUOTE="Reskiy, post: 325278, member: 27166"] Like the title says... My MacBook recently had it's first and last bath... In other words, I fell asleep and spilled my half full glass of water all over the left side of my MacBook where all the ports are... :dive: I panicked, so I wiped the water off the outside then used a hairdryer to try and save the inside... Luckily, it worked... Sorta... It has to be plugged in for it to work now... It's been an hour since the "incident" happened and it still won't work on it's battery... I pulled the battery out and found a whole lot of water inside... :o I knew that was no good... So I immediately wiped off all the water and started to blow dry... After 5-10 minutes of that... Still no good... It still fails to detect my battery... And another sad thing is... I got the [I]"flickering backlight"[/I] problem 2 weeks after getting my MacBook last August of 2006... The problem recently stopped last month... But now after this... It's back! :( If there's anyone out there that has had a similar experience or knows the solution to this problem... Please help me out... It would be greatly appreciated... Thanks. [B]Reskiy[/B] [/QUOTE]
