If you couldn't just wipe off the liquid, there are two possible places it could be hiding: If you have an aftermarket screen protector, some might've gotten under it. Try with your fingernail to lift the edge of the screen surface. If that doesn't do the trick, it's probably between the touchscreen digitizer and the display panel. Opening the screen is easy. You'll need a #1 Phillips screwdriver and about twenty minutes. Identify the hinge cover, a single piece of formed sheet metal that runs along the top of the keyboard above the F-keys, and curves around the hinges to the back of the machine. Start with the laptop closed, standing nose-down so the handle is in the air. Remove the two screws securing the hinge cover to the chassis next to the handle. Then set the laptop down in its normal orientation, open the display 180 degrees, and remove the other three screws from the hinge cover. The hinge cover should now lift free. Set it aside. Now, remove the ten screws around the perimeter of the screen. You'll need to pry out the rubber bumpers to get at two of them. Once all ten are out, raise the screen to the 90-degree position and gently separate the cover from the frame. At this point, the back of the display panel should be visible, along with the flex cable that leads into the main cabinet, the backlight inverter, the touchscreen control board, and the wireless antenna, if equipped. Identify the connector where the clear four-conductor flex cable from the touchscreen meets the control board. Gently pull the beige latch lever away from the connector and remove the flex cable. Do this with the other flex cable connectors, too. Now you should be able to separate the display panel itself from the frame. I believe it's just held in by rubber bumpers, though there might be a few screws too. (It's been years since I had my display apart.) Once you have the display out, any liquid between it and the digitizer surface (which is bonded to the frame/bezel) should be easy to remove. Installation is the reverse of removal. Observe static precautions, and work in the most dust-free environment possible. Any speck trapped between the digitizer and display during reassembly will drive you nuts!

I have had some luck with just letting things dry out for instance dropped cell phone in water completly submerged I shook what I could out of it sat it on my dashboard in van (after taking battery out) waited about a week cut it on and it worked like a champ Electronics are funny things This is something you could try depending on how fast you need it back you dont have to put it on dash just somewhere near heater may work or may not but worth a shot has worked for me in the past.

I didn?t understand exactly what was going on with your LCD monitor, however, if the Windex leaked into the monitor and it no longer works then the answer is probably but depending on what is damaged it may not be economical to do so. If the Windex just leaked into the laptop and it still works then you?ve been luckily. In either case the thing to do is disconnect it from the A/C power source and remove the battery to prevent further damage. You or a repair shop needs to disassemble the appropriate components and remove any remaining liquid immediately.
