Solved! Acer Laptop Charges but not turning on

[hubcraft100]

Now I was shutting down the laptop and the next morning I found out that the Acer Laptop won't show the blue light when the power turns on.

NOTE: Yes, I know some batteries are not so easy to get to, on some devices. However, it should be removable/replaceable. Unless it is under warranty, then you should contact the manufacturer first.


Try the following and see if it will turn on...

1. Unplug your charger cord.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Press and hold the "Power" button for 30 seconds.
4. Now plug back in the power/charger cord.
5. Now put the battery back in.

If this doesn't help, then test the power cord to see if it is good. Either try your cord in another device, or try another devices cord in your laptop. You may also want to try charging it when the device is off, rather than on. If it works then, the cord is probably the issue.

Should that not be the problem, then check the battery to see if it needs replacing.

I tried that no luck. The laptop haves a orange (means it's charging) and blue (it's full) indicator I only saw blue so means that my power cord is working fine. I Also tested on different devices and works fine. The battery didn't need replacement.

So the cord worked on other devices, to run them I am assuming. Did it also charge the other devices while they were on? If not, then could still be the charger. When they start to go bad they can often run a laptop but not charge it.

Now in regard to the battery, you said it didn't need replacement, I am curious as to how you checked it?
