Last night I accidentally left a cup of coke on my desk and my cat knocked it onto my pc. Not a lot of coke spilled, I had already drank most of it, it had a lid, and I got to it pretty fast. I immediately powered off and unplugged my computer but the case had screws on it so it took me a while to get in and dry it.

That happened at around 1:45am last night and it’s now 3:15pm. I’m scared to plug it back in because I don’t want to break it but I have stuff to do. Would it be fine to try plugging it in and powering it on?

If anymore info is needed just ask.

Update: I plugged it in and it turned on but the monitors are black and wont show anything. I can’t afford a new PC rn I don’t know what to do.

    Use alcohol or anti static cleaning form and a cloth or soft toothbrush and cotton swabs. The sugar is what’s bad for it so make sure there’s nothing anywhere before starting and should be fine unless damage has already been done
