    I bought a Shuttle PC a few weeks ago.

    The other night i had the cover off the pc & spilled a cup of coffee next to the pc.

    On a closer look, there was a couple of little drops on the motherboard.

    The pc wasnt plugged in, so i stripped the pc, cleaned it & put it back together.
    When switching it on, nothing happens.

    I left it for 10 minutes & it came on by itself, but there was no power getting to the hard drive or the GFX card as there is no picture through the monitor.

    Im not too sure whats failed, i think its either the motherboard or the power supply.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    Also, can anyone recommend a good motherboard that would fit inside the shuttle case.

    [EDIT] Here is a link to the case i have.

    disconnect all cables to drives. remove all cards & ram except for videocard & 1 stick of ram, reseat those 2. try another psu. clear the cmos as have found that it to kickstart stubborn systems sometimes.
