My acer aspire v5 471p with Windows 10 won't boot sometimes. The keyboard light and the power button light turns on but the screen won't turn on (Complete black).
I tried cleaning the rams. (Its 4+4) but even changing the slots it didnt work. Even if i boot individually the same problems occur. Even connected an external display.
So normally I need to turn on and off powerbutton until the logo appears for around 5-8 times.
And also sometimes pc shows the ram as 4 and sometimes as 8. But even if i boot from only 1 ram the same problem occurs but it will boot after several tries.
Can anyone please help. Because I have only this laptop
Thank You

    Hi amcareem,

    Try to do power drain,

    1. Shutdown the unit.
    2. Unplug the cables connected to the unit.
    3. At bottom of the unit there will be a small tiny pin hole with a battery symbol close to it. Take a pin or a paper clip insert into it you feels like pressing a button hold it for 20-30 seconds. ​

    unfortunately i dont see such a hole
    but i removed my battery and pressed for 30sec and turned on the laptop but same problem.
     I also reinstalled my  graphics driver. but nothing helped
