    What did you wash it with? The c2 is not water resistant.

    Remove all batteries 'disconnect the power cord. Hold the power switch on for 15 seconds without ANY battery or AC power to the laptop. Then Re- Install the battery And power cord. Re-start and see what happens.

    these machines are incredible and honestly I am speechless, so far so good blinking stopped after I put the it on charge a bit

    I know only the keyboard are waterproof but this machine still survived after washing it with soap screen everywhere lol it wasn't my first time but it was kind of careless so I guess I spit some water in it but still survived thank god loving this laptop so much :)
