My laptop, aspire E1-510P will not power on. A blue light will come on for a few seconds then it shuts off. What is the problem & What can I do to fix it?

On Acer Aspire notebooks, blue light indication has different meanings depending on whether you are using your laptop on battery or by connecting it to a power adapter. To know more, the following link can be helpful:

In your case, it is recommended to check if there is any issue with the battery. To do this, remove the battery from your laptop and connect the laptop directly to power adapter. If the laptop works fine now, there may be some issue with the battery. To confirm this, you can try using another battery (if possible) and see if that resolves the issue.

 

Hope this will help you.

I have exactly the same problem.

 

Following behavior:

I turn on the notebook. The On-LED goes on blue. After about 6 seconds, it turns off again. The screen remains black and off at all times. I have already tried with another A/C adaptor, with and without the battery pack, pressed the on-button for (several times) like 20 seconds (after I do that, additional to the On-LED, the HDD-LED goes on as well but goes off too). I can even hear the harddisk driving up but also stopping again. The fan is working too. I also have already removed the RAM and placed it again - correctly - in its bank.

 

What else can I do to bring it back to work?

I just want to bump this as I'm having the same issue on an E1-571

I'm having the same problem. Has anyone with this model found if a new battery would solve the problem? It's been a pain since I'm a student and can't take my computer with me anywhere unless I have the cord and an outlet.

I have the exact same problem. Tried everything that's been suggested in the thread, nothing worked

Must note that few days prior to this it wouldn't shut down - was stuck in some form of sleep mode (hitting any key would make it boot and the power indicator was blinking orange).
Also had the same issue in the past, not sure what fixed it
