  • I wanted to thank everyone for helping me with my issue on this Acer unit, it turns out I had a loose plug on the Motherboard. Reseated the plug and applied electrical tape to keep it from happening again. All is good. Thanks a bunch

  • The keyboard works fine, my problem is only an external monitor works unless I hold down the F5 key really hard and even on a system restore Windows locks up when I try to go to video settings.

  • The keyboard is seated correctly, I am starting to think there is a loose connection, when I press on the case around the keyboard the screen lights up but not picture. Still if I hold the F5 key I get a picture. If I press the enter key the screen lights up but no picture. I am trying to avoid taken the entire laptop…

  • Like I had said the weird part is if I hold down really hard the F5 and F6 key. I have installed a new keyboard because I had a missing key anyways and that did not help. Very confused. I will post what happens after another system restore.

  • As soon as I try to go to display settings from an external monitor windows locks up like it is thinking. and this is on a complete restore.

  • The only way I can see the screen is to hold one of the F keys down. I have already tried your suggestion. Did not work

  • The screen on the Laptop turns white but I have to keep messing with the F5 key for that to happen. This is why I keep thinking it is the Keyboard.

  • Tried that but it did not work. Why would the external screen only work when I pluf it in for a second or when I turn it off then on. The screen will work for a second.

  • I was able to restore this unit back to factory settings, still black unless I hold the F5 key down and then it turns white, the external monitor works for a couple of seconds when you plug it in then also goes black. I am still thinking I have defective F4,F5 or F6 keys on the keyboard? Any thoughts?

  • Thank you so much. I kind of thought that at first untill the buttons showed the screen. but that does make sense. I think my daughter said it was working when she went to bed but then when she woke up the black screen appeared. I will update when I try your suggestions.
