My revo has died

heximal

Hello, can some one give me a clue wheter or not anything can be done in my situation?

Yesterday I've got my Acer Aspire Revo R3700 non functioning. Usually I keep it always on but this time when I tried to wake it up it didn't respond. I decided to hard reset it by pressing and holding power button and found this button blinking in some strange way I've never seen before (a bit faster than in sleep mode).

After it shut down I press power button again and my revo was no longer demosntrating any vital signs - no beeps, nothing displayed on monitor. Cooler is working and hard disc is rotating - I can hear. Usb keyboard dongle is on but nothing more is happening.

I tried to google and found a couple of mentions with similar symtomps but they related to Acer Aspire One laptop. There was a solution of flashing bios image by inerting flash drive with bios image and pressing Fn + Esc + Power buttons.

But this didn't work for me.

Any help would be appreciated very much.

Hi heximal

 

It sounds as if you have a power supply issue or worse, the motherboard has died!

 

You could try removing all cables & connections when you press the power button (keep holding for 30 secs) to see if that helps, otherwise, take it to a local reputable PC store, where they should be able to test it for you.
