ES1-512-C162 dos not start
Hi,
I have the acer ES1-512-C162 of a friend. The issue is that is will not start. If you press the power button the blue light blinks, I hear the HDD start but it stops immediatly.
The BIOS doesn't start.
If I remove the HDD and try to start without HDD I just get a blinking blue light. I also put in another HDD but then ony the blue light blinked.
Can anybody help?

Try a hard reset. Unplug it and turn it over. Locate the reset hole and using a paper clip, gently push until you feel a click. Hold for 5 seconds. Plug in and try.
Check or have checked the output of the power supply.0 -
Hi Philetus,
Thanks for your reply.
I already tried the hard reset, that did not help. I think the power supply is ok, If I connect the power supply the light showing the power supply is connected does work. I will check to be certain.

Philetus,
I checked the power supply and that is working fine. Also tried resetting the battery again. No luck.

From your results, I would guess the motherboard is bad. If it is still under warranty you should contact Acer or book it in for repair yourself.
