Acer Aspire V5-552p :: Will Not Power Up

Sep 1, 2014

This laptop is rarely used, so not sure what could be the problem. This last time, I had inadvertently removed the power block from the wall to plug something else in. Since then it will not power up at all. The blue light comes on but nothing else. I don't hear the drive spinning or anything and screen just stays black. I held power button down for 60 seconds and finally saw normal booting screen and then went back to black screen.

Acer Aspire V5-552P :: Has Short WiFi Range

Jan 18, 2015

I have an Aspire V5-552P and ever since a few months ago its wifi range has been really small. It has to be right next to a router for it to connect when it didn't have this problem before. All of my other devices can connect from a distance just fine so I know it is not a problem with the router. Is my wireless adapter faulty?

Acer :: Aspire V5-552P Touchscreen Stopped Working?

Jan 4, 2015

I have run into an issue with my Acer laptop which is leaving me really frusrated. For some reason one morning my touch screen stopped working. There has been no damage to my screen at all. 
 
I have concted Acer Technical Support which in usual fashion were of completely.... Before I got in touch with Acer Technical Support I tried:
 
Refreshing the HID Monitor drivers Removing/Reinstalling the HID Monitor driversBoth of these were unsucessful, according to Device Manager, the HID monitor is working just fine. Upon calling Acer Technical Support their suggestion was to reinstall Windows because the tech though that it was an software issue. 
 
I just reinstalled Windows are still have the same issue. Device Manager shows that the hardware is fine and functional from a driver standpoint. 
 
I've also tied ensuring that the cable behind the monitor is in tact as in this post: [URL] Thus far nothing has worked.

Acer Aspire 6930 :: Will Not Power Up Even After Power Reset

Oct 13, 2014

I have an Aspire 6930 that suddenly died and will not power on.  The LED power button was dark and unresponsive.  I performed a power reset and the blue light on the power button came back on until I pressed the button to try to restart the laptop.  When I did that, the blue LED immediately went dark and stayed that way until I did another power reset.  It never gets to the point of anything powering on.  Is it a problem with the battery or it the laptop toast?
 
This is a real bummer since I just replaced the hard drive a few weeks ago and replaced Windows Vista with Linux Mint (which btw is blazing fast compared to Vista).

Acer :: Aspire 36802682 Won't Power Up

Mar 2, 2009

Have me a dead Acer Aspire 3680. My son was using it and it just went black, with no power and no signs of life.

I basically get nothing when I plug in the power and hit the power button. I removed the battery and tested with just the AC adapter. Still no signs of life. No LEDs, etc.

I completely disassembled the beast to see if the power board had the jack still securely attached and it is still fine.

I had the AC adapter tested, so it is fine.

So I guess my question is, how can I verify whether this is a problem with the MB/CPU or if it is a problem with the little power board not delivering power to the motherboard?

I can check for voltage at the battery charge pins. I'm seeing voltage on 3 of the 5 pins. The large one being ground, I'm assuming. Should I see voltage on the remaining 4?

I don't want to replace the MB/CPU and have it be the power board that is the problem, and vice-versa.

Acer :: Aspire Laptop Power

Oct 8, 2008

I'm having major trouble with my laptop (an Acer Aspire 3660) which is about 2 years old now. I don't know if there is a problem with the internal power socket or something else, but sometimes when it is plugged it just won't run off the mains or charge the battery. Sometimes I can get it to charge up, seemingly by rotating the power cord cable but at other times it will randomly go to battery even though absolutely nothing has moved, and sometimes it will go to battery power with the slightest little nudge. I don't think this could be related to the battery as the battery seems to work fine (although it does drain quickly I guess it's pretty old in laptop terms). Has anyone else had this problem or have any suggestions? I bought a new power cable (completely new including power pack and the plug end) but the problem still happens.

Acer :: Aspire 5315 Wont Power On Via AC

Jan 2, 2010

I've got an Acer Aspire 5315 and for some reason the laptop has stopped working correctly. The laptop will turn on and work fine when the battery is in, but when I try and charge the battery from the PSU plugged in nothing happens and the battery is starting to drain. I've taken the battery out and tried to power the laptop up but there seems to be no power getting to the laptop. The PSU is showing a green light on the block. I have also been advised that it could be the AC socket on the laptop, but I've now replaced this and its still not working.

I haven't got another PSU. Could there be any other reason why the laptop wont turn on?

Acer :: Aspire 3003LCI Power Adapter Bad

Dec 9, 2008

My power adapter went bad on my Aspire 3003LCI.

The power adapter has the following
specs.
Input: AC100-240V
Output: DC19V 3.42A
Power: 65W

I purchased a Targus APA10US universal power adapter. Its specs are as follows.
Input: AC100-230V
Output: 15-24V -2A
Power: 65W Max

My Aspire calls for a #14 tip, but that one did not come with the adapter. Can I use another Targus adapter (#3) with a different tip without doing damage to the PC? I have been told that the tip does some type of voltage regulation and adjusts to the settings of the PC.

Acer :: Aspire 2930z Automatic Power Off

Mar 3, 2010

I have Acer aspire 2930z with Windows 7 ultimate (64 bit) installed, the problem I face is sometimes, when I play games on it (the Need for speed undercover). The laptop gets very hot and automatically goes power off, I have to unplug the AC adaptor wire, replug and then only I can switch on the pc or else if I try to switch on without un plugging, nothing happens.

This is a problem for what I am really worried, well sir, I use my laptop with my battery but it is connected to electricity all the time as we have some electric break down problem(s) here, so do you think the pc gets heated because of battery plugged?

Infact before when I got this laptop new, I used to play for 3-4 hours the game and nothing used to happen.

I bought the laptop exactly a year back in march 2009.

I have 4 GB or ram, 320 GB hard and 2.17 dual core processor.

Acer :: Aspire Screen Blank On AC Power Use

Jul 27, 2009

I have an Aspire 5610 with 2G ram running vista home premium. I had a few explorer windows open, and was getting memory warnings. I shut a few windows down, and a few hours later, the screen turned blank. I reboot the computer, but the problem persists. Now it turns out if I remove the power supply, and run it on battery, everything is fine. As soon as I instert the power supply chord, screen goes blank (black). Upon removing the power supply, if I shut and open the screen, it works again (and it also shows me a warning message that the wireless is in use, and if I really want to turn the antenna off).

The screen obviously is fine, as it runs fine on battery. I don't understand what is happening as soon as I insert the power supply, and why upon removing the power supply, I get a warning on turning off the antenna.

Acer :: Aspire 1700 AC Power Connector

Apr 21, 2008

what brand the 4 pin AC plug on the power adapter!

It is almost an Mini DIN connector but I have those. The pins are fatter and the dimension of the circular connector is slightly bigger than the DIN.

My guess is that the connector is used on a number of the 1700 series.

Acer :: Aspire 5014WLMI Power Weirdness

Jan 12, 2008

The laptop came with no power supply and a dead battery, which I knew about beforehand, but it booted into bios, so I figured I'd have a good chance of having a decent laptop with the addition of a universal power supply. I assumed I could purchase a battery at my leisure. I rarely use battery power anyway, so it's not that big a deal to me.

I have a universal psu, so when the laptop first arrived, I plugged it in, and it did boot to bios as the seller claimed. However, after about a minute, it began beeping twice every 3 seconds or so, and the power led began flashing orange. Also, whenever it beeped, the screen would dim, then brighten back up. I've emailed the seller about this, and he said it didn't do that for him, but the battery had some charge when he got it, so maybe that's why not. He said he was going to repair and use it himself, but gave up once he saw the battery wasn't charging, as his costs were adding up.

I checked into some things, and discovered that this laptop originally came with a 120w power supply, whereas I was using a 90w. So I decided to buy a new battery and 120w universal adapter, as it seemed likely it wasn't getting enough power or that it was dipping every few seconds or something.

When they arrived, I plugged in the adapter first, and it didn't beep for a minute or so, just like when I first got it, but then started again. I assume this is because I left it sitting for a couple days waiting on the things I bought, though I'm not sure why that would make a difference. Also, the battery I got was a replacement, non OEM one, and when I put it in, the computer boots to an error message that says "Warning Incorrect battery Using an incorrect battery could cause system damage" and then it shuts down again. I've looked at a lot of different batteries online, and all of the generic ones replace about 8 different acer batteries including mine, and are the same as the one I bought. Also, when I've tried booting it with no battery at all in, I get the exact same incorrect battery message.

I have several questions. First, does anyone else have an Acer laptop that won't boot without the battery and yields this particular message. Second, does anyone have any idea what's going on? <grin> Third, do you think it's worth getting a new OEM battery? Will that solve this? Fourth, do these laptops use a rechargeable CMOS battery (it keeps losing the settings, but only after it's off power for a little while; I've read that some Toshibas have rechargeable CMOS batteries, but the system will only charge them after the laptop battery is charged 100%)?

Acer :: Aspire 5920 Blue Power LED Became Amber

i have a brand new aspire 5920 notebook. The round power button LED always used to glow Blue. A week back, the power button started glowing Amber. It stays amber irrespective of whether it's running on AC or battery power. The power indicator at the bottom right stays on even after i shutdown the notebook thus draining out the battery.
