Wait a sec. people actually put motherboards in the dishwasher?
Just curious.
I've done it with keyboards here at the office. Toss a bunch of them in the dishwasher in the break room when they get too cruddy. Works pretty well, although if you use the heated dry it cooks them dead, 100% of the time. Also just a pinch of detergent, anything more than that and it'll bleach the keys and leave them streaky (at least, that's what happens with those generic black Dell keyboards). Set them in front of a fan for a couple days, flipping them every few hours, to dry.
If OP wasn't super-careful on those above two matters, his board is probably dead (err, deader than it already was, anyway).
For motherboards I use QD Electronics Cleaner, or some similar-type spray. Never thrown one of those into the wash. Yet.
