  • Market problem laptop Acer problem

    Hi all

    I wonder if anyone has met, or heard of this problem.

    I have a laptop Acer Aspire 5745 w / 640GB HDD and 8 GB of memory running with Win 7 Home. I have about 3 years.

    A year or 2 there, he began to develop a market problem. I noticed that most of the cooler mornings (tendency to heat my house more than necessary). Sometimes, it makes the power of Win 7 on screen (Windows 7 and swirling colors, creating a window) and stop somewhere along the way. Other times it cannot even do it in front of the Acer splash screen. Sometimes it will go to full boot (Windows desktop) only to hang. I might have to restart the machine more than a few times to market. However, once I turned it completely, I can turn it off and restart without any problem.

    I reinstall the HARD drive and thought it helped, but only for a bit. The problem comes back. Battery seems to be in good shape.

    One thing I noticed this morning, is that if I unplug the PS, the computer started fine. I still need to do some additional tests to confirm or deny this... but it was a discovery of new and interesting.

    I read in some places that the PS/charger can be a source of such problems.

    Any idea or feedback is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you and see you soon...

    Hi stephr1

    Yes, it sounds as if the charger is at fault. If she starts & runs fine on battery - it's the only thing she could be!

    Buy a replacement charger - one who gives the same output/input as the existing one, then this should solve your problems!

  • Laptop HP 15 t-r160: could not get the replacement for Hp 15 laptop cover... URGH!

    I'm repplace the rear/top hood for a 15 HP laptop, model number 15 t-r160. It is blue. The customer has dropped and damaged about everything on the left rear corner (hinge, lcd screen, corner covers...) and the upper rear cover. The part # on the broken lid is 760966-001. I tried to order the part from 2 different places on eBay and both times they sent me the worng a 775084-001. These 2 numbers appear as the same party on several lists, but they are different. 775084 001 is not for the LCD screw holes. 760966-001. I can't find a place that recognizes / acknowledges the difference short of opening the box and observing. HP support has been absolutely NO HELP. Anyone know where I can order part # 760966-001 and get 760966-001? Thanks in advance for the help!

    Just an update. A seller from eBay, turbofly626, actually took the time to seek the cover of exact part 760966-001, and they had 1 available. They are sending me. All other replacement covers for this laptop 15 HP are the alternative part # 775084-001. And yet once that one will not work due to not having the screw for the LCD screen holes. HP and other vendors of parts must get this right. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but the model # of this Notebook of 15 special HP is HPt-r160. That's all! There is no NC, NA or SA at the end of the model number. What I found for the model r160 referred to one of the models in 3 sub (NC, NA or SA). Weird. Very frustrating!

    BIG thank you to those who have responded and have tried to help!
