Acer aspire one P531h does not illuminate after power to the top

My netbook aspire one P531h, running on Win Xp 32 bit, shows a black screen only after power on and the power led remains lit steady green. Problems started awhile the 'evil' netbook to start.  After one or 2 low power it started again. Then the battery fails to charge beyond a certain level and now it will fail to start.

I search the web and forum and there seems to be a BIOS problem.  I found the instructions on how to flash/upgrade to day other models but not this one.

I tried:

I downloaded the new BIOS software, but missing instructions for Flash for this model.

Looking forward to hear from you.

  • Acer Aspire S7 392 does not start after the new Antivirus installation

    Hello

    I bought the Acer Aspire S7 392 in October this year of digitec.ch AG here in Switzerland. Everything worked well until December 19 when my Antivirus McAfee has expired and I decided to change my Comodo Internet Security antivirus. A month back, I had installed Windows 8.1 as well and things were smooth until last night. Last night, when I installed Comodo Internet Security, the computer requires a restart, I did, and then my computer erased. I could not even reached the Acer logo at startup.

    As I tried to check the observation of details of covers them this white screen problem, Irealized that many people suffer from a similar problem. It seems that Windows 8.1 and an installation of a new antivirus may have led to this white screen problem. In addition, it seems to be a bios problem that the computer would not start and I hope that someone could help me with this problem.

    Thank you very much Acer-Tommy. I had to take it to the Acer Support in Switzerland. He partially solved the problem. My S7-392 has a built-in battery that I had to reset which allowed the laptop to reboot normally. As in, I was able to boot up to Windows 8.1. However, as soon as I logged into Windows, it hooked up soon. Do the restart 3 times triggered the automatic repair/update option. That I took and returned to Windows 8. I had a Bios 2.05 2.03 intead and I had to install 2.05 before making updates. I recommend you seriously all the people who use the S7-392 to strictly follow the installation procedure for Windows 8.1 mentioned on the Acer site.

    Please update your Bios to 2.05 before installing something new, especially a new anti-virus.

  • Acer Aspire One 522 does not start

    I replaced the RAM of 1 GB in my 522 an Aspire. After that the netbook starts not more. Only the blue power led flashing and I hear the fan. I can only turn off by pressing the button for 5 seconds. The screen is black and I can't access the bios. Now the laptop no longer starts with the original module either. I'm looking for a way access the bios, but I found nothing for this model on the internet. Hope someone can help me. Thank you

    Finally, I took a better look at the RAM module and the slot. Although I replaced the modules many times it seems that they were not properly placed in the slot. In any case, it works with my new 2 GB module.

    I wish that you mentioned the "beeps" in your original question.

    When you start a computer, you will receive a 'beep', which indicates that the motherboard has spent his own self (POST tests. Power on self test))

    'beeps' (plural) normally indicate a hardware problem.

    Read the Information on the links about different codes "beep":

    original title: Netbook Windows 7 problem

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

  • Time Machine does not work after update of the Sierra

    The time function machine my Mackbook Air 2011 stopped working... it has not been saved since update for Sierra, it only take screenshots every hour, it will perform a backup is no longer on my external HD as before.

    There is no problem with the way it is implemented or the hard drive, it's me that my iMac is working perfectly since the update for Sierra and it's backup via the time machine on the same hard disk.

    It is a hard drive and put in place I was in use for about 5 years with no problems.

    Also since the update for Sierra I noticed that my MacBook Air gets hot and the fans go wild, although there was nothing or performance other than the system is auto.

    I lost the use of my built in camera after the update to El Capitan, and now I've lost the use of time machine... I was wondering if I should go back to Yosemite that everything worked well then!... is this possible?

    Thanks for any help with this!

    Update:-just so you know, time machine is to find the back up ok drive (external hard drive), it then goes to "preparing backup" and that's all, he remains in this preparation save the scene for centuries, after a while it just stops and it is saved all... nothing!

    Also noticed when I checked in Time Machine full backup I have before update for Sierra disappeared, he disappeared, been deleted... I don't know what is happening with it!

    Overall since the update for Sierra my MacBook Air did not work properly, in addition to all that Safari does not load, just to get the wheel spinning, and now (with the demise of my old back ups) it seems I can't go back to a previous state.

    My Mackbook Air took it!... the last update took the camera and really Sierra in... material not compatible with all new software, none of the new features work on my iMac or MacBook Air (only Siri), so a useless upgrade for me really, wish I didn't!
