Should take care of it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38292935 Not falling for that shit again I'm with you, OP. as soon as I get this laptop that I'm using, back online, I'm filing a complaint! 30 seconds in the microwave was too long! |

Cold temps do not work with electronics. I awoke to hear john 3:16 in a loud voice.

Should take care of it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38292935 No, No, No! Only way to do it properly is preheat the oven at 450 and allow the electronics to defrost for at least 30 minutes to an hour. Microwave will heat it to fast from the inside out too quickly, haven't you heard of what happens when you try defrosting kitties in the microwave? They never survive and it's cruel! |

This dork used to hang out around the weight room, wondering how we all got so buffed. Someone told him that before a workout, we put IcyHot in our jocks. Within minutes, wails of agony emanated from the locker room... |

I left Minnesota before the blanket ubiquity of digital devices. Also we had a lot of mild winters in the late nineties where it wouldn't have been a big problem anyway. But seriously what happens if you leave your camera or laptop, phone etc. in the car in North Dakota in January? I remember how careful people had to be with their wooden musical instruments like guitars when it was super cold. But I don't know anything about the protocol for mp3 players and cell phones in below zero weather. |

Steady User ID: 26319950 Canada 09/12/2014 07:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Is this thread for real? Even my grandchildren wouldn't put their computer in the freezer. Good grief. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2268641 Hilarious nonetheless I was always an unusual girl. My mother told me I had a chameleon soul, no moral compass pointing due north, no fixed personality; just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and as wavering as the ocean... And if I said I didn't plan for it to turn out this way I'd be lying... Because I was born to be the other woman. Who belonged to no one, who belonged to everyone. Who had nothing, who wanted everything, with a fire for every experience and an obsession for freedom that terrified me to the point that I couldn't even talk about it,and pushed me to a nomadic point of madness that both dazzled and dizzied me. |

The heat will help it dry. It will also help dry out the motherboard. The other way is take a soldering iron and fuse together the on switch with the plastic. The last way works the best- spray some hair spray on it and then dry with a hair dryer- works every time |

But I don't know anything about the protocol for mp3 players and cell phones in below zero weather. I would walk to school in the winter, I literally lived across the street but it took me ten minutes to get across the campus parking lot. One year was particularly frosty with it being -20 or colder for my 8am classes. My mac would be ice cold to the touch and sometimes me and other people in my class would have to wait up to an hour for it to turn on and function again. Thats what happens this is the start of how it all ends |
