PC keeps shorting out after a small amount of liquid was spilled on it

i need serious help here, it may short out again at any time and i just wanna talk to my lady friend on yahoo please help, could it be shorting out? what do i need to look for? any ideas?

Is this a laptop you're referring to?
What kind of computer do you have?
What was the liquid that you spilled and where did you spill it?

its a pc with atx form factor, i spilled coolaid on the top near the usb ports and audio ports and some of it got through the fan which is located on the top and now it just restarts randomly

Did you let it dry at all before attempting restart?
If not, you can cause a lot of damage.

i didnt, but i didnt notice anything wrong, it wasnt that much coolaid

and the fan was on so it probably didnt get very far into the pc

it might even be software related im not sure

My advice to you would be to shut off the computer immediately.
If you can open it and dry it off with compressed air, do so.
If not, let it sit at least for one day.

ehh i could live with that but ill have trouble explaining it to her

luckily my dad has an air compressor so ill do that

Ok just make sure you cut back the air pressure.
You don't want any more than 20psi.
10-15 psi recommended, and don't rush anything.

ok so ive narrowd the problem, the pc is acting as if i pressed the power button

ok so its been on nearly an hour and it hasnt shut off, i had to disconnect the cable from the power button to the mobo, i think the damage has been done so drying it wont help, front usb hub is ****ed
