MotherBoard Bios

061960

Hi Everyone, I hope someone can help me :-)

I have an Aspire 8920G 'Gemstone' and my Motherboard has finally died after years of long service. I sent my laptop for repair to Acer Repair Centre but in the end was eventually told they couldn't get a new Motherboard so they sent it back.

I have bought a MotherBoard from Ebay (with a years warranty) but having fitted said Board and connected what i need to connect when I turn it on, it starts to load, HDD light starts to blink, System Fan Runs, the Optical drive spins, the everything stops. throughout all this activity my screen remains Blank/Black, there is nothing!

My Question is - Do I need to Flash the BIOS to Acer v1.16??

ANY Help and/or Suggestion would be awesome.

Kind regards

JP

Try connecting to an external monitor to eliminate faulty screen, make sure you have no loose connection of cables.

Could it be my Graphics card? Bios?

It's really difficult to tell from this side as it could be anything, Motherboard may have been faulty, have you used Anti ESD band when you handled the installation? Have you checked the memory modules seated properly?

I would suggest you to get help from a Tech as they do have all the necessary tools to test them thoroughly.
