    Hello

    I own a Compal FL90 for some years, yesterday I accidentally spilled a bit of water in the screen and it got behind it. However I tried to dry it with a hair dryer that can blow cold air as well, but you have to hold the cold button to make it blow cold air, and I accidentally left it on the laptop drying while I was trying to find a solution on the net and the plastic got a bit burnt.

    The screen seems kind of ok, it's much better today than yesterday night so I guess it might get dry completely, however there's a white line that I don't know if it's caused because of the water or the hair dryer.

    I have tried to contact Compal support to see if they can sell me some spare parts, but I don't know how expensive it will be to ship them to Spain

    Do you know any other places I can get the pieces from?

    The components I need are:

    1. The plastic power board that has the WOW Audio, WOW Video, Mute and Power On buttons
    2. Full LCD screen (are there better ones for this model?)
    3. The microphones that are next to the webcam
    4. The plastic front frame that has the 6 rubber pads that hides the screws to access the screen.

    Thank you.
