Our FatFrog is dead!!

Need some help here guys. Our FatFrog got rainsoked over the weekend!

The Tech that was at the show covered it with a tarp, but didn't put the lid on. From what I was told, it had quite a bit of water, but he fired it up anyway(don't ask me why). He spent the next several hour getting the water out and blowdrying it.

Where we are at now. When you hit the power, you can hear the floppy try to start, and the LCD interface screen is nothing but blocks.

Do you think I can try reloading new software, or is the BIOS gone?

I appreciate any help I can get. I really need to get this going, as I need it here for the next few weeks for shows!

Thanks

Dear Sir,

 

I think that I have answered this from a direct e-mail and recommended that you contact our US dealer.

 

From what you have said though it looks like the liquid has got into the DIMM or battery and possibly damaged these.

Regards,
