how to clean salsa off the keyboard of a G50V laptop.

This laptop has a water resistant keyboard. There was some Rojo's salsa underneath the 'SPACE' key on the keyboard, and I cleaned it off with Vancouver Washington tap water!
This is not to say that rinsing salsa off your laptop with tap water is a good idea! Even though you may have soft tap water (not that conductive), the salsa is very conductive, and some of that may leak onto the circuitry...
Please don't abuse your Asus laptop on purpose!

  • hmm i guess you could call this, yea no words, didnt you get taught, water + electric = danger?

  • I knew that (I have an Associates in EET).

    I did this on purpose so that I could RMA the laptop and get a fresh sealed one that I could sell.

  • UPDATE:::

    Some water and/or salsa did leak into the laptop.

    It was working fine until I tilted it forwards on the table I was using it on (about an hour after this video was made), and subsequently it cut power.

    The ExpressGate blue LED doesn't even light, and no indicators on the front side light up either. It's broke; even after drying out in my warming drawer overnight.

  • lol does your warranty cover it??

  • Affirmative .... 1 year Fire/Water/Dropping it/Surge protection warranty!

  • omg, this seriously scared me.

  • lol accidental warranty. to be honest they would never know that you did it on purpose because they would never think of anyone to be so retarded.

  • turn off the pc you jackass !!!

  • Are you kidding me? dude remove the spacebar....

  • i spilt tea on m g50v , 2 days later works fine again :) need a new keyboard now tho :(

  • friend of mine have a G50 V too..he said that the GPU is verryy hot! maybe this can help!lol

    rock solid, heart touching

  • wow I cant believe you did that while the computer was turned on? Thats a bit silly

  • I reckon you've just made the salsa problem worse and spread the stickiness around. The salsa wouldn't have magically disappeared.

  • i had the same problem but with a ps3 controller

  • Well of course it's dangerous...but you know what, just spill the water on the keyboard because underneath it actually has been sealed just like my fujitsu...so no danger...

    Actually it's still dangerous...=(
