Following your request to diagnose the laptop, we have found the following results. We have diagnosed, that there has been water damage to the main motherboard. Upon further inspection there also appears to be substantial water damage to the monitor. From appearance, this looks like sustained droplets have hit the keyboard, soaked through to the motherboard, and also back splashed against the screen.
We would highly recommend that the laptop is not powered on, under any circumstances.
Costings to repair the laptop are as follows.
Parts
Motherboard A$ xxx
Screen replacement A$ xxx

To dismantle the laptop in order to replace the motherboard, and screen, installation of new board, and screen. Clean all parts inside, re-assemble laptop complete, and testing complete.

Given the cost of labour and placement parts, and the likely time involved to source most of these components from different vendors – along with the fact that principal components of this laptop have to be replaced – it is our recommendation that this notebook not be repaired as it would be uneconomic and impractical to do so.
