Shorted power to the motherboard

I have a Compaq, Anyway I was repairing the power supply and my 3 year old came up and well, I accidentally crossed the wires shorting out the power supply while connected to the laptop. Anyway the power supply still works but when i metered the power imput to the laptop it showed it was connected. SO the + is connected to the - inside the laptop, does this call for a new motherboard or just components. Thanks Tim
