And it is possible that trying to power it up when it was too wet could have damaged it.

It was covered well with a plastic tarp. It’s finally inside and it doesn’t work. The power cord is in outlet and the red light is on treadmill. Is it possible it just needs a few days to a week to fully dry out any condensation?

Is it going to be cold or will there be some heating….

Will the comuter be powered on or powered off during that time?

Computer turned off and wrapped up in blanket does not do much help in the long run.
When your computer is wrapped in blanket, it will become same temperature as the air around it
in hours to few days. If tempeature is changing over different times a day, blanket can keep
computr temperature more stable.

It will be inside of a mobile home and wrapped up in a blanket. Do you think it will be alright?
