Hi guys, I know that this is my first post and that it isn't nice to be a help request, but I desperately need help with my problem. I have an Acer Aspire 7520. Once I had it on stand by with the lid closed. After I opened the lid I saw that the laptop was shut down. I pressed the power button, but after 3-5 seconds and not showing anything on the display, the laptop reboots himself. So he enters in a loop and I can only stop him by removing the power source. The previous week I had a problem with the laptop that it wouldn't show anything on the display. I had to remove and put back the RAM. I would appreciate your opinion. Thanks!
I would not use sleep/stand bye mode, half the time they will not come back.. Did you pull the battery as well as the power cord? you need to pull both for 10 minutes, then try it.
I can't. The laptop reboots himself after a few seconds, not even the bios logo has the time to appear. This thing happened like 5 days ago.
Same problem over here!!!!! My Acer Aspire 5742 shuts down before the OS even starts booting. No sound. Runs in 5 sec and then shuts down. I changed the HD to an older 80gb Acer and then it started booting to DS option, but neither "start normal mode" or "start safe mode" worked. "To old HD for this computer" I thought. So I went and bought a new one named Seagate SSHD 500Gb (the orginal hd has 500GB and I thought; why not upgrade when I have the chance.) later I found that the new HD are thinner and has an seperate power input (I think... at least an extra input of some kind.) but thanks to the screws in the HD rack I could make it fit. But then. Same shut down problem accured. Changed to the old kinda-working 80GB HD again but now, the same happend here. Suggestion?
Well, it can't be a HDD problem. It worked a few months with this one and it is new. It would be nice if someone could help us.
