I didn't turned it on or charged my laptop for about 5-6 days. But today when i turned it on everything was fine for about 5 minutes and after that suddenly it turned off. The charger was plugged in when it happened. But now it is not turning on and also the charging indication is not showing. The laptop is 22 months old.

    Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds. That forces a full power off even if the system is stuck on one of the sleep modes. After fully powering off try turning it back on normally.

      Hello hello I have a problem with me my Acer Aspire 5 computer. I went to work this afternoon and after working I put my computer in my computer bag in sleep mode I put it away like this with the applications still open in the background among a video game. I went home, left the computer in the bag and left. When I got home I took the computer from the bag and it was heating up, I let it cool down a bit then I plugged it into the mains but it does not turn on but the charge does not take. I need help please. Computer at 9 months

    I have a similar problem with my 515-51. When I power it on, the blue poer LED burns, the keyboardlight works, the ventilator runs for a few seconds. And then nothing happens.
    I tried als the advises (reset battery, tapping teh F2 key, press powr button for 30 seconds), but no change in the situation.

    Any advice?
