  • Agreed. If the thing is wet, you could see if it works better when it dries up. Probably won't. Otherwise, you'll need to replace the metherboard or whatever chip is bad. However, replacing chips is not a typical repair activity: some chips are "permanently" attached and are not meant to be removable. Usual process is to replace entire motherboard component. Alternative: you could try replacing a RAM chip, or removing one RAM chip if you have multiple. That might be reasonably easy, and could fix this issue. But is a bit of a long shot; not worth buying more RAM just to try.
