ACER NITRO 5 POWER LIGHT AND CHARGING LIGHT BLINKING

NikRamen · November 2021

I play games with my laptop plugged in but when I boot up certain high graphic games such as Rainbow Six Siege, Apex Legends and Left 4 Dead, my power light and my charging light blinks and I quickly close the game after that happens. What does this mean and is there a fix?

@NikRamen this mean that laptop is not getting enough power from the charger. You can try cleaning the charger head, charging port, plug the charger in a different outlet. The last solution is replacing the charger.

Hi @NikRamen,

# Try to get the BIOS page.

1. Turn OFF the unit.

2. Press and hold the F2 key and turn on the unit.
3. You will be in setup utility page.
4. Once you got the screen release the F2 key.
5. Tap on F9 key and hit enter key without changing the option.
6. Tap on F10 key and hit enter key without changing the option.
7. Your unit will restart by itself.

Check this T/S and post the result.
