My Acer aspire a315-53 just recently has started randomly shutting down, and after a few days of no use it is able to turn on again. The laptop is still able to charge but just not turning on. I tried tightening screws near the ram hatch but it does nothing, and when I open the hatch I can't even find the ram button. Please help!

    Did this start to happen after an update of some kind? What  do you mean by a RAM button? Do you mean a safety interlock switch?  Jack E/NJ

    Sorry. You'll probably have to pull the bottom cover off to get at the normally off safety switch (SWG1). While you're in there you might as well check the normally on battery reset switch as well (SWG2). Jack E/NJ
