Hi, My Acer laptop isn’t working anymore. When I press the power button, nothing happens. I looked inside the laptop and saw nothing strange on the power switch, also not on the flex. When I ‘short’ the connections from the power flex, the fan is working and the hdd runs; but nothing on the screen. After a few seconds is turns off. Could it be the power switch or is it something else?
Thanks in advance!
sounds like there is more going on.. I had the same problem, turns out there was a ram problem to… it had a short circuit and fried the ram. if the fan starts, there is power. maybe not enough, you ll have to check that. ( measure it out if possible) than check with new ram. if still not working : check with an extern monitor. Check the flat cable and connection from mainboard to screen. it is possible the chip on the graphic card is fried.. I was thinking on a dead motherboard , but the fan starts … so i think more in the other components.. Let us know, Kind regards Kevin
