    Which Aspire 1 model do you have? There have been a bunch of different ones over the years. The model number should be on the same sticker as your serial number and look something like AOxxx-xxx-xxxx. Does your have a pinhole on the bottom for doing a battery reset?

    Hi @Libhongolam


    You can try to disconnect the laptop from the charger flip it upside down at the back side of the laptop there will be a tiny hole that has a battery symbol near that. You just have to press and hold it into that hole for 30 to 40 secs with a safety pin or a paper clip. Then you can try to turn it on.


    Hope it will help you in some way.

    Actually you should follow the full procedure, not just the press and hold. When you release the button wait several minutes to make sure there's been enough time to bleed down all capacitors, then plug the charger only in and wait for the full battery indication, then and only then do you turn it back on.
