So my daughter spilled water on top of my computer. There is an exhaust port in the top and the water went through and dripped onto my Radeon 6970 2gb. This result in the computer turning off.
I have a backup video card I put in and the computer boots and works fine. However with the damaged card in, when pressing power the computer won't start. Only for a fraction of a second the case fans try to spin and then stop.
I have taken the card out and with rubbing alcohol and q-tips i've attempted to clean away a white film like substance left behind by the water however the computer still won't boot with this card in.
I can see no signs of damage to the card. Nothing looks burnt. Just a little bit of residue on one part of the card near the power connectors.
Any way to save this card?
