Hi Everyone,

I need a help. I have an Acer aspire switch SW5, it was working fine And yesterday it only shows a blue light And doesnt Turn on. When charging The led is âmbar color but when i press The button to Turn on, The light changes to blue And nothing happens.
I've tried The reset pin hole, but still The same problem.
Can anyone Help me?

Try pressing the power button by itself for 30 seconds, then release and try to turn on normally. If it's stuck in one of the sleep modes that should get it back.

Yes, i've tried This, still stuck with blue light And black screen

OK, we've got a couple of things to look at. Either the screen is not working or it's not booting enough to get into POST. If we're not getting to POST (that's where the Acer logo shows up) then it's likely a motherboard issue. There's not a lot that can be done short of swapping it out. If it's a display issue than we might be able to test by hooking an external screen up to the micro-HDMI port. You'll need a micro-HDMI to HDMI cable and a TV or monitor with an HDMI input. Make the connection between before powering up the computer. After booting up you might see your login screen on the external screen. If not try using Windows-P plus some cursor up and down to try and blindly set either duplicate or extend. If you can get anything to show then we have a path forward.

I think it os The first option. I tryed with HDMI cable And didnt work.

This is The second time i have issue with This laptop/tablet.
I bought it on may 2016 in México. Then i came back to Brazil, And two months after, i sent it to warranty in México And they changed The motherboard.
Now, 4 months using The tablet, another problem, but now i dont have warranty

Yes, sorry. If it's the motherboard it's likely not worth fixing. I have one as well but thankfully it's still going strong. I like the new model Switch Alpha 12 better. It's got more power, a higher resolution screen and the keyboard is a lot better. The original Switch 12 was really nice but it's getting dated now.

In my opinion, Acer products aren't Worth it.
I just spent my Money in a Trash. Simple.
