No, but plugging it in while wet would.
/facepalm
Back away from the Mac, put down the screwdriver and raise your hands where we can see 'em. Nice and slow.
Do some research before you start monkeying with it some more. See sig.

take a breather and google up some doc's
meantime I had a 8500 that was a nasty thing to get started, but once it did it was fine
after you read up abit on how its pieced together wiggle everything thats in a socket, if dirty clean
on my 8500 the cuda button was beside the cpu slot but under the heat sink, press and hold
other than repeating the process over and over again would anyone guess my 8500 still worked
last time I got it started, it took a evening of me fiddling with it before I got the broken glass sound
then another evening before it chimed
Months later gave it to a fellow member still working fine, but dont let it sit in the closet for a few months (even with a good battery)
(ps its not really necessary when its the 1 post above you)

Not even two days. Looking inside the case means nothing.
Hey, I'm just trying to help, but if you want to ignore the advice I and others are offering you, then *shrug*. It's your loss. It's dead now, that much is certain. I wish you luck.
Re: quoting. Quoting the entire post directly above yours to add a one line reply is not only unnecessary, it's considered poor form. Context is clear from the fact that your reply comes directly after the one you're replying to. If you are replying to something in particular, edit.
Once again mars478, you've failed to have patience. All you had to do was let that machine sit for 1-2 weeks to completely dry out and adjust to room temperature. In trying to test the machine prematurely, you've probably done a lot more damage to it. Also, you really should research more about the machines you acquire. That case is notorious for its bad internal design, and this has been documented in depth on this very forum. Getting angry and impatient with fellow members doesn't help either - Bunsen and the others are trying to help you.
