So...If I hand-washed it, would I use a sponge or just let it run  
through the water?  Soap or no?  And how do I check the power supply  
voltage?  (sorry, I'm a 13 year old and this is my first experience  
with an SE)

PS- The ROM chips come out?  I never knew that.

Well, I see dishwashing as a last resource. I would first try the  
obvious
things: reseating the ROM chips and the RAM SIMMs, replacing the SIMMs  
with
known-good ones, measuring the power supply voltage (it must be  
between 4.95
and 5.05 V.), and trying to power on with the hard disk and/or the  
floppy
drive unconnected. If all else fails, you can dishwash the motherboard  
with
cold water (I think hand-washing is better) and letting it dry for two  
days.
