Its because it was Diet Coke that it stopped working. Lucozade would have given it that extra power to keep going!

Warm salt water should have it doing a little more

**Apex** · 12-12-2003, 10:05 PM

no i just dried it off

i think i'll stick it in the freezer, and then power it up see what happens, hopefully it'll be cold enough and i'll get some neat frosty / smoke type effect coming from it

I'm not suprised that it still works, if it got into the PSU then it would have shorted the mains and tripped it out before it did any damage ... anyone seen the 'L33T Duron' video - they overclock this Duron to 4.9Ghz and take the cooler off

... its fake but great to watch (if you watch in slow mo you can see its packet with explosives underneith the socket)!

**joshwa** · 13-12-2003, 03:27 PM

yeah that was a cool vid

i put it in the freezer last night, and got it out today, turned it on, and it still works !!
