Leave the computer off and unplugged. If there is no power to it, then the ants can't short anything out. I'm not sure how you can clean them all out, but a dead ant body can make a short just the same as a live ant body.
Circuit boards are covered with solder mask. So it would be rather difficult for an ant to short anything out just walking around on it, but if it gets near any of the parts on the circuit board, they can have exposed leads. I would be most worried about the ants shorting out an IC because they tend to have the most exposed areas.
