Acer :: 5672_WLMI Motherboard
May 3, 2008
i have had my 5672 for about three years now. I am a computer tech and i take it on the road with me to solve problems every day.
well the other day i was doing a data transfer on my laptop via an external hdd when all hell broke loose.
now when it boots up it just stays on the splash screen and never goes into windows. its not frozen it just dosent boot. when i try a new hard drive it wont load it just stops on windows the is starting screen.
i have run every test in the book. i have tested the ram with memtest86 no problems. i have run numerous thest and they all say every thing is ok.
so either i blew out a usb port that fried some part of the motherboard or the hdd controller is fried.
has anybody else seen this issue?
and where can i find a new motherboard online?

I've acquired my daughters old acer extensa 5620 but the motherboard is apparently kaput. I can't find a replacement anywhere, so, does know anyone of a different model that will fit this chassis?

I have an Acer Aspire 5715Z notebook and I would like to change my motherboard to a more powerful one which has a normal graphics card, not an integrated one.
The motherboard of the 5720G is compatible with this model? If not, which one?
Another question:
Can this series of Acer notebooks use 800MHz DDR2 rams? Or up to just 667MHz?

My 6920G went down a few days ago, I sent it to local computer store to have it diagnosed. It turned out that they say it is a mobo issue and said that it would cost aroun 400 to get a new mobo + labour fee.
I don't have any warranty on theis laptop, and the 1 year warranty by the manufacturer has expired. I am just wondering if I can order the mobo fron Acer and maybe replace it on my own.... I don't know which would be better, to have the guys at the store do it for me or phone Acer....

I noticed that if I have to shut it down by turning the power off directly from the power switch (without shutting down Vista first), some problems arise.
The next time you try to boot the laptop after doing an "emergency shut down" like that, the laptop starts making a very loud beeping noise and it's very hard to boot it (eventually it will boot, though). My friend said he doesn't have problems like this even if he has to turn off the power by pressing the power button for 4 secs.
Is the motherboard broken?

it boots to the acer start screen where you can press F2 to get in to bios but nothing happens when I press F2 and it justs goes to this screen:
And this text is on for like 3 secs then goes away then comes back for 3 secs and so on.
If I put in the acer recovery cd it loads the image file, then theres just a green background with a mouse pointer and the mouse is not functional..
Doesent sound good, right?
there is no HDD in it.

After I was done cleaning my vents and fan today, I was greeted with a white screen upon booting up.
Since the screen gets power, and it works when connected to an external monitor, I do believe I have accidentally poked out the cable that connects motherboard to LCD.
And since that's under the not-user-accessible portion of the case, it may take a while for me to get at it.

I have a 1 year and 10 month old Acer Aspire 9300 laptop and the motherboard recently bit the dust. My retailer in Gananoque Ontario could not find a replacement. I called Acer which took forever to get to someplace where I could leave a message. I received no reply. After you've called once it's impossible to call again. I guess their answering machine recognizes my phone number and then asks questions that makes it impossible to get through. I sent a detailed explanation of my problem by email 3 times asking a few simple questions, the most important being 1) where can I send the laptop to be repaired? 2) do you sell replacement motherboards and if so how can I buy one? Am I asking too much or getting too technical for them? I've been trying for several weeks now to contact Acer to no avail. What kind of an idiot company is this? A techie put me onto a company called Grand Tech in Richmond Hill Ontario that can replace the motherboard on an exchange basis but the replacement will likely be a repaired one.
Someone told me that the problem I have with the motherboard is common and it is because the solder used at least when mine was made was of poor quality. I hope that problem has been resolved. I'm afraid a repaired replacement my have the same problem. Some people just say to trash it and get a new on which I did. I bought a Dell Inspiron 17 which is supposed to arrive on Nov 11. I would however like to repair the Acer if it can be done cheaply and use it to replace my 8 year old PC in the rec room.

I have had a breakthrough in my laptop experience. I actually opened it up.
I followed the manual and no problems as of yet.
My question is the point in me opening up my laptop was to find the motherboard make and model and revision version number. I was checking to see if there was a bios update for this laptop and the advice given was to get the exact motherboard make etc..
and the best advice on how to get an exact match was to open it up. I did and I searched as far as my cheap tools would let me. I was able to remove the cpu fan but when I went to remove the cpu heatsink I could not get the screws to budge. According to the manual the cpu is beneath the cpu heat sink and this is where I thought I needed to go to find the motherboard make and model etc...

Let me start by saying that this forum is EXCELLENT source of information.
Now let me give a short history...
I had upgraded CPU before in Laptop (in my Acer 3680). So I decide to upgrade the CPU in my Acer 5315 as I gave my 3680 to my brother. I also have a work laptop which has a T7200 processor. My Acer 5315 has Celeron M 530 - from my research it should be ableto upgrade since it has the 965 chip. Before I buy any new CPU off of ebay I wanted to test and see if the Acer supports T7200 (Core 2 Duo) since I had the other laptop at hand I decided to try to work with that first.
So I disassembled the Acer 5315 took out the CPU (its very easy access) - disassembled my other laptop got the T7200 out and I put it in the Acer 5315, put it together and boot the system... Nothing... Thats when I realized that out of my infinite wisdom I had forgot to remove the battery in the Acer 5315...
So now I took the battery out, took the T7200 out from Acer, put it in my other laptop and guess what... the other laptop does not work either.... I put the celeron processor back in the Acer 5315 and it does not work either.....
So now I am out 2 laptops. My work laptop is under warranty so thats already being repaired... no worries there. But I think that I have fried hte motherboard and CPU in the Acer 5315. I tried to reset the CMOS but to no avail.
What are my options now? Here are my thoughts
1. Sell the laptop for parts on ebay and buy a new one - I think it will go for like 50-60 may be 100 if I leave the HDD and Memory in. New Core 2 Duo will cost atleast 600 for a decent one.
2. Get a new motherboard and CPU and fix the 5315 - I checked ebay and it seems that the mother board is like $200 - I dont think its worth it unless I can be sure that it will support Core 2 Duo processors - which over all will nd up costing me like $270 - still cheaper than new one.
--- Does any one know where I can find cheaper motherboards for laptops?
3. Not sure if this is possible - can I get a desktop/other laptop motherboard that will fit and work in my Acer 5315 frame? I dont think desktop motherboard will be possible - but what about other company laptop motherboards?? Can I find some aftermarket parts?

I'm looking at the motherboard on my Aspire 5601AWLMi (mobo id "31zb2mb0091" ) and I see there's four places where can insert cards. Two are the RAM chips, those are labeled DDR RVS 1.8V with "tyco" written on the other side of the plastic bracket, there's wireless card slot not really labeled with anything conclusive over near the Lan and Phone port, and then there's another slot labeled "0624n3" on the left side of the plastic bracket and "-+AMP" on the other side of it. I have absolutely NO idea what that last slot is for, and I'd like to know, if anyone can figure it out.
To describe it, pin wise starting from the left it has 1 pin, a divider, then 61 pins in a row. I think it's 61. I'm not willing to recount :P
It's physically shorter than a ram chip, but not by much more than 3/4cm is my guess.
You can see the slot itself in this picture:
[rl]
The slot is sitting just above that big red..knob..thing.
Also, I found this page, but it didn't tell me anything useful, I think. The mobo is flipped over in the diagrams..

i have an acer aspire 1642nlci laptop for about over 2 years now... recently the battery (simplo 4-cell) went nuts, and i disassembled it to see if i could do something about it ( the issue was, whenever i'd boot up my operating system i.e XP, the system would stuck, until i remove and then replug the battery in to the laptop)... well i did no repairing, just put the cells out and then back to the casing, inserted the battery into the lappy, and the issue went all by itself... however, 2,3 days later, the battery stopped charging and agonized by the situation already, and while i had my battery(without the casing) inserted into the laptop, i shorted the i/o pins of the battery to each others with a metal... and then the real issue began... my laptop is cursed, it won't start anymore past the initial 'acer' screen... sometimes the lcd won't light up even... pressing f2 helps nothing, keyboard doesn't work... and if you let it stay on for a while, the power indicator leds *both the supply and battery status ones* start to go dim and dimmer... i think i have fried the mother board's power supply area...

I have a 4 year old Aspire 5552-5898 which is having issues ....
First issue is that the Laptop doesn't always boot. When this happens, the power button will light, the fan will spin, the HDD will start, but the screen stays black. Sometimes the PC will restart but the same thing will happen. Usually when this happens, if you hold down the power button, the laptop will power down, only to start up again. The only way to end this cycle is to unplug the machine and pull out the battery. Also of note this seems to happen 100% of the time if the machine is not plugged in, and about 50% of the time when it is.
The next issue occurs when the machine does actually boot. I HAVE to enter the bios because it never holds the date. I thought this could be a CMOS battery issue, but even after replacing that, the problem persists. After entering the date, and saving and exiting, the machine will boot into windows just fine.

Dell came and replaced my motherboard the other day, I was wondering if this also means that I got my GPU replaced?
I was told that my GPU was part of my motherboard by a friend.

warrantee is out of the question as the incident involved salt water....
Anyway, Does anyone know what type of motherboard is it and where can i find it? The one i have carries the Hd4650 gpu with 1gb memory.
If a new fw490 mobo is still not available, can i find another older mobo (i think the type is mbx-189) and assign to a technician to solder the old's mobo gpu onto the new mobo

i'm having trouble with my XPS m170.
It has:
Pentium M 760 2Ghz
1Gb Ram
60Gb HDD
Geforce Go 7800GTX 256mb
17" WUXGA
Windows Media Center 2005
I was playing CS:S, and all of a sudden i was getting artifacts on the display. Than the computer froze up and i had to power the laptop down manually.
I was able to restart the computer in safe mode a couple times.
But wow when i try to restart the computer, i'm getting artifacts on the Dell Splash screen. And then it would freeze up.
What do you think the issue is? At first i was thinking the GPU is the problem. But now i'm beginning to think its the motherboards.

I have recently put an M1710 LCD screen cover on my I9400, and the palmrest with the XPS logo in it.
I saw while I had my system apart my motherboard has the solder joints on it for the plugs for the LED's but no plugs for them(has them at the front for the speakers, next to the fans and next to the connection for the monitor).
Is it possible to solder the plugs on, will they work ?? I guess I will need a new BIOS for them ? anyone done it. Would appreciate any info/help. what plugs are they ?
Also is the XPS logo in the touchpad controlable ? mine isn't working at the moment (it's plugged in and was bought second hand but supposidly working ?) anyone know. I know others have done this mod.
