Aspire F5-573G Reboot problem

Hello guys! I am facing a serious issue on my Aspire F5-573G. After usage, i turned off my laptop before sleeping on night. On the next morning when i tried to turn on my laptop, it restarted several time, sometime i saw the acer logo and sometime just black screen. So i just turned down the lid and waited for sometime, but after several hours, when i tried to open my laptop, the same problem occurred again. i tried to press and hold the power button for several seconds to check, but the problem occurred every time. After a while, it didn't start at all. no restart, nothing. i tried connecting the charging cable. But nothing happened. About a week when i tried to boot my laptop, again it didn't start at all. So i kept it as it was. After nearly a month, today it finally turned on and some windows update happened. So i restarted it. And it turned off after showing the windows update percentage instead of restarting. I tried to turn it on again, and again it didn't start. After some hours, when i tried again then it started normally.

So What could be the problem here. I am worried as hell. Some help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance and i beg your pardon for making this so long.

The problem that you are having is mainly because in these fixed internal battery laptops either the Super IO or the bios gets periodically frozen (which is common) and unfortunately you have to open your laptop up and disconnect either the main battery and/or the bios battery together to fix this issues, as with the old laptops where only their batteries can be removed, you could reset the Super IO and/or the bios by simply taking the main battery out or in really hard core bios freezes you also disconnected the bios battery also. What I would do in your case is this:

1. Remove the nineteen (19) screws from the base cover
2. Take the main battery out (see caption below) and leave it disconnected for 15 min
3. Do the same with the bios battery (see caption below) and only use a plastic prying tool to take this battery out, its also best to replace the bios battery on an old laptop like yours. Don't use a metal prying tool as it could short the laptop.
4. Reconnect both batteries and boot your laptop up, be patient as the laptop will take about 1.5 min to boot as the bios has to reset, as then it should fix this problem for you.

If not then you have other power on issues that is an internal circuitry issues that need an experienced tech to go through and be checked.

If HDMI out to a TV set works OK(press FN+F5 to turn TV screen on), then the LCD video cable probably needs to be replaced from wear and tear of opening and closing the lid too much. It's wires or conductors often intermittently break or crack in the hinge areas. Replacements are usually less than $20 but requires some disassembly.
