only real way to sort is to completly dismantle it & rebuild it, drying all components individually...

If it was just the beeps then i would say it could be the memory but you said there is a dim light on. Sounds to me like it's the motherboard.

yeh motherboards make beeps to tell u what the problem is - get out your manual for your motherboard (download a manual off the net) and it should tell u what the different beeps mean... either way something is fucked

The number of beeps depends on the type of BIOS chip your cousins laptop has - 2 beeps usually means that a circuit failure or RAM prob has occured.

What was actually spilt on the laptop? Anything other than water and you'll have trouble drying it out properly.
