hey guys, i'm back and i had a horrible night last night
so i was there on my bed and one of the cats is laying with me. i had been petting it, and i reach over to get a sip of water from my water bottle, and while i am my cat reaches over and pulls my arm over, spilling the water all over my bed.
well, some of the water runs underneath my computer, so i get it up quickly, and as im moving it, it shuts down. well i try to turn it on and it just beeps and the light under the capslock key blinks. and it does nothing. so i nearly panic. i get a dry blanket and start wiping it off, and then i take off the battery/harddrive cover and theres a little water under there too, so i nearly panic more. so i dry that off as best as i can, and it still doesnt come on. so i tell me sister and she says to get some rice, put it in a bag and sit the computer on top of the rice and close the bag, leaving it over night.
i do that and thankfully this morning it turns on and runs fine... except, the trackpad isnt working and the keyboard isnt working right. when it logged on it acted like the trackpad and keyboard were just plugged in for the first time, so it detected and started installing them, but then it errored out of both. so the trackpad didnt work and the keyboard acted like the shift key was permanently pressed down (i tried to send word this morning, but shift+click does not hit submit =/)(i have an extra mouse i sometimes use on it and it worked fine, minus the shift problem)
so im gonna try turning it on again and see if it loads right, and if it doesnt im gonna try to use my mac CD to reload the drivers, and if that doesnt work i may be kinda screwed until i can get a new cheap computer and transfer my stuff to that.
