So, I have an Acer R751T and it will not turn on. Is there anyway I can fix this problem?


Thanks, OxyNitro.

    So there are a couple of things to try and I don't know what you've done so far... First try a long press on the power button (30 seconds or so) that forces a full power off. Wait a bit and then try turning it on normally. That usually does it for issues where the Chromebook is just confused and stuck in one of the sleep modes. If that doesn't help you are going to want to try and verify the battery is charging. You might be able to try a different charger if the original isn't working right, but it sometimes is just that you have to push it in that extra tiny bit that seats it fully.

    After I did that, it did not work. I plugged it in, and after a couple of minutes, it shows a red-orange light as an indicator that it is charging. When I hold down the power button on the side, it blinks blue.

    OK, IIRC that amber light will turn blue when fully charged. Wait until then and try again to turn it on.

    @Jasoncoolman you should start your own thread. Your problem is likely not repairable, the spilled water likely shorted something out. :(
