Recently, I saw a video from the Internet and found that someone directly cleans the computer motherboard with water. This behavior shocked me very much. It may be that I was ignorant. In my past, in my impression, computers were very afraid of water. If water splashed onto the computer's hardware, it would probably burn the hardware directly. So how could anyone take the computer motherboard directly to wash it? It's not just because of cleanliness.
For some people who prefer to cleanliness, seeing so much dust accumulated over time on the computer motherboard, it is really uncomfortable. So is it reliable to wash the motherboard? Is there no problem if the computer motherboard is fully dried and dried after washing it with water? With this question. I also tried it myself. Anyway, my computer configuration is so low, so I should have changed it long ago, and I won’t feel too distressed even if I fail.
First remove the computer motherboard from the chassis. The method is relatively simple. Use a cross screwdriver to unscrew the several screws that fix the motherboard. The various wires connected to the motherboard need to be slowly pulled out. It is also important to note that the graphics card, memory stick, CPU, hard disk, power supply and BIOS battery on the motherboard are removed.
After disassembly, only one bare motherboard is left to clean the steps. Remember to remove the BIOS battery here, because the battery is charged. No matter how small its power is, do not let the battery come into contact with water to avoid short circuit.
Open the faucet and rinse the dust on the motherboard with clean water. Then use a washbasin to fill it with clean water, soak the motherboard in it with a small toothbrush, slowly brush the various gaps of the motherboard, and after thorough cleaning, put the motherboard on the counter and blow dry evenly with a hair dryer.
After blowing, leave it for one day. If you live in the south and the climate is relatively humid, it is recommended to leave it for a few more days, use a hairdryer to blow for about five minutes every day, and then you can assemble it when the motherboard is completely dry.
Connect the CPU, memory, graphics card, hard disk and power supply to fix it, and then you can turn on the computer and test it. After turning on the computer, I found that I could enter the operating system normally. At this time, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. After turning on the computer for a whole afternoon, I found that there were no obvious problems.
The hazards of washing the motherboard in water: [The risk is too high, it is not recommended to wash it in water]
1. It is necessary to remind everyone that you should try not to clean the computer motherboard. In fact, simply use the cleaning tool to deal with it. If the drying is not thoroughly done after cleaning, it is easy to cause the risk of power-on short circuit.
2. During the cleaning process, use a brush to clean the motherboard, and the brush can easily damage the resistors and capacitors on the motherboard. The core components are damaged and the entire motherboard is scrapped. Therefore, cleaning is risky, so be cautious when it comes to trouble!
