hi all, problem is i picked up an acer 5720z for the Mrs but its dead no lights fan or anything at all, not a peep. i have taken off just about everything there is ( battery, dvd, ram, hdd, added usbs, and still nothing i tried holding the power button for 60 seconds and stilll nothing i even swapped the power jack as there not soldered and i had a known working 1 already so i know it has to be a motherboard problem ( unless the processor could do this ? ) but i am leaning more to a fuse on the motherboard does anyone know where i may find the main fuse or what i should be looking as a last option before i chuck the board any advice please would be nice
it must be the board you would at least geta slight flash of light coming off our board anything at all but it sounds like ur board is 100 percent kicked
hi thanks for your reply, i am thinking is there a fuse to control power ? i remember about 2 years ago having a nintendo ds with similar problem and i replaced 2 fuses (F1 + F2) which got it working and just wondered if the same goes with laptop motherboards ? it would just be nice not to be beat many thanks for your response
