Setup my watercooling loop again this morning. Of course, my mobo got wet again and I've been drying the thing all day. Still won't start up but the mobo LED status light comes on. I'm 95% sure it'll start up again once it's completely dry but the wait is driving me nuts. Someone please give me assurances that it'll work again. Any way I can speed this up without taking the mobo out?

Nothing's leaking. Just had some generally spilled water while I was filling the loop. And yes, I use clamps everywhere .

Alright, crap. Now I'm starting to get worried. It's been 24 hours and it still won't start.

some help maybe?

I've only run into this happening to me once, so
try this:
clear cmos. (sorry I know thats the first thing anyone would do)
replace motherboard battery maybe? who knows..
swap psu.

sorry that probably isn't the magic bullet your looking for,
just some thoughts to try.
good luck!
