Hello,
I would like to ask for some advice. I am experiencing some issues with booting my computer (Acer Aspire GX 781_H_WLP).
It started something like a year ago. After pressing the power button on my computer, it started to run, i started to hear the fans, but it suddenly stopped, lights went off, the fans stopped spinning, like it completely shut off itself. After like 5 seconds the pc came to life, booted up again, the beep was there as well, however my monitor did not respond. Like it was completely disconnected. I tried to change the output on the back of the pc, with no success. I tried to swap a monitor to my tv, with no success as well. The pc was running tho.. I could see the keyboard lights up, i can basically type my password without seeing the screen, and i hear notifications popping after signing in. I could also turn of the pc afterwards with alt+f4.
The thing that stresses me up the most tho, is that the problem fixes itself, when i plug it out of the power supply by disconnecting the power source, for maybe half an hour and try it again. The whole proccess repeats itself including the blackout of the pc, and after that the monitor lights up perfectly fine...
This issue occured to my on maybe every 5th or 6th boot up of the pc and basically vanished after two months or so.
Up until now. This time, the problem occurs to me on every single boot of the computer. And the fix is not that easy all the time. I tried to disconnect the power source, but without success. So i unscrewed my pc lid, tried to disconnect every single cabel and reconnect it back (i thought maybe there is something with that). This solved the problem last time. I am however in fear that the next time this happens, i might be unable to boot it up again.
If you have any ides on what to check, what to do, or any questions about the situation please let me know.
Thanks a lot!!!
