Bill:

Drying the keyboard with a hair dryer was not a good idea... Under the keys are layers of mylar with the circuits for the keys printed on them. If the mylar got hot it wrinkled and the keyboard may have been ruined. Try the keyboard after the batteries have dried, and if it does squirrely things, you'll probably have to replace the keyboard.

hi,

you can look this page, i think you should consider buy a new battery Dell Latitude D830 , mabe this is a very short moyen.

Then, you have fried the motherboard. Have him replace it.

If that happens with a new keyboard then the mother board is faulty and a replacement laptop is on the horizon. What happens with an external (USB) keyboard?
Hope this helps.

The first thing when spilling drink on your electronics is to remove ALL power.

Then wash the circuits with DISTILLED, de-ioniozed water till all traces of the spillage is gone. Next driop dry with one corner down and finally let dry a few days.

The only damage the spillage usually can do is electrolysis from the power source. Circuit boards are washed with water during manufacturing. Use DE_IONIZED !!!

look if u have a water spilled over ur lap drive, dont start it, it might get short circuted..
now as u r sayin dat u opened ur drive & all, seems u r kinda knowledged abt it..
So if u can, open every part like hard drive, mem slots & all..
then get a dryer, blow it over ur mother board.. make sure u dont leave the processor part..
Now take ur battery out, clean the slots, clean the battery terminals, its socket..
leave ur lap opened in the same way for a while say half n hour of for 1 hour..
Now reattach every part u took out, and connect everything properly except ur battery..
once u fixed all ur components, fix ur battery & then try to start it..
I hope this works out..

If u liked my post, please rate me up, i really need some good ratings.. Thanks !!!

i believe when u spilled the water more then just the motherboard was damaged i do not think replacing the motther board will fix all of the problems

i took apart a few laptops recently to swap a few things and there was some double sided tape holding the motherboard to the bottom casing. maybe thats it

If you spilled water all over your laptop and its loading but not displaying you have damaged at least the inverter board and probably more. If it is booting up and you think it is ok except no display, you can verify this by attaching an external monitor and see how if at all the laptop is performing

Hi
Yes, they usually is one but it mat be on a separate power board
