Aspire 5253 power up issues

Hi Folks.

 

Recently bought 2 Aspire 5253 Laptops. Running them on Windows 7, IE. Problem started about a month ago. Now, when we switch off or switch to sleep mode we have problems getting them both to switch on again. Plug in the power lead, and there is no power light. Press the start button and nothing happens.  We have been able to get them backup by removing/reinserting the battery and unplugging/replugging the power lead. It's a case of 'keep fiddling' with these 2 options, until eventually the power light comes back on and everything works as normal. Any ideas ???  Has there been a Windows update that causes problems with power settings ???  Can't think where to go with this.

We bought the machines in the UK in April, but we are now in Spain, so returning them is not practicable.

Cheers.
