Okay, sorry for all of the updates,

Like I said, recapping the board will bring 90% of all dead Classic IIs with your symptoms. It did for many others including me:

Did you use acetone when you washed the board?

Yes, recapping is the only option to repair 90% of all Classic II Boards. More work maybe needed if there is damage to the board (like mine and a couple others since the sound does not work but that's no biggie for me).

I did not use acetone, just water. I can borrow some nail-polish remover, that is the same thing right?

Also I am kind of stupid and I touched the screen while it was doing its clicky thing, and I could definitely feel where my other hand was touching my leg being zapped. I won't do that anymore, that's for sure.
