hi guys im new to this site,hope ive opened a new post here ? and am not posting out of place.

having read a few related posts here ,i have tried out a few of the answers provided on this subject here and still no go .

have got an acer 5720e which had a light wine spill on the keyboard ,and was quickly dried out

it was immediately ,switched off and unplugged etc, it had a couple of days on the boiler open and drying out .

had the back off etc and took out the ram and what i could .

it reboots as a brick ...black screen ,some fan movement one hard drive flash and remains powered on till you kill it by holding down the start key .ive swapped cd rom drive ,{green light stays on all the time },removed cd rom drives whilst attempting to boot from usb and even removed the hdd hoping to use usb .still no show .

ive tried using fn+esc method : plug power in and hold down fn esc keys method on formatted fat usb drive .

also bootable cd rom copying the fd file supplied by acer bios update 45 as described on this blog ,nothing .

should i try and get a new bios chip off ebay ive seen them for sale?,or am i wasting money and effort ,

i can solder etc and do the fix myself .

ive checked hdd on my other pc alls good .

i can only assume it must be bios or worse .

any advice help would be great.

if it needs a new mobo ,is it worth fixing . cheers !
