My ACER A315-21G Won't turn on. When I hold in the power button, the charge light flashes orange 5 times but nothing happens. No POST, no screen light up. No beeps. Nothing.

    Remove the charger. On the bottom look for a pinhole with a battery symbol. Gently insert a paperclip into the hole for 10 seconds. Then  let the machine rest for 15 mins. Then plug the charger back in. Then try to turn the machine on  again. Jack E/NJ

    I have done the battery reset and now after the word ACER appears on the screen, the screen simply blacks out. Is there a fix for this?

    Try turning the screen on with the FN+F6 toggle key combo. Jack E/NJ
