FAQ's:
Q: Does this video apply to my issues?
A: This video is for computers with no signs of life that appear 'dead'. It will also help if you see minimal signs of life such as lights only or some hard drive / fan sounds but they stop right a way. If you are able to see anything on the screen at any point or if the hard drive / fan sound remain on, your issue could be something else. Leave me a message with your exact symptoms and I can direct you to the correct video :)
Q: I have tried all the steps seen here without identifying the issue :(
A: If, after all these steps, you have not been able to find the issue, your most likely looking at a faulty component preventing the motherboard from working or a motherboard issue. I would start troubleshooting each component, starting with the charger and power jack. You can see those two videos here; • How To Test your Lapto... & • How to Fix Test Your H... . You can also try replacing other components like your Power Button to see if that is the route cause. If none of those are the issue, you would then be left with a motherboard replacement.

Hi Jamin, I want to thank you a lot for your video. It saved me from a stressful situation. I plugged in the C-type USB into the HDMI plug and my laptop shorted. I tried your one minute solution. It didn’t work. I opened the laptop unplugged the battery, and then re-plugged it, and it worked, thanks a million for your video my laptop, because i am teaching physics and i need a lot of material from my laptop. For the viewers , my laptop is an Acer spin five for reference.

I have to connect the charger for a few seconds, disconnect it, then press power multiple times whilst the orange light flashes each time, until eventually the blue light comes on and the laptop turns on. If when pressing power button the orange light doesn't flash, i have to reconnect the charger again for a few seconds, disconnect it and try again. It's a new battery as well since I had to replace the old one that draining too fast. The laptop is almost ten years old. I have tried removing the main battery, I have tried removing the CMOS battery with no luck. I have checked the CMOS battery is giving 3 volts so it must still be full. I have tried a new CMOS battery too. Any other help?

@@PC_Monkey it's a generic one with the same specifications as the acer one. When I contacted Acer, they said they no longer offer support to my model of laptop and they've discontinued services for it since its almost 10years old. I think this is so unfair. However when the laptop does turn on, the new generic battery is excellent and gives me the expected amount of power at an average 6 hours. My laptop model is Acer aspire v5-573 (not v5-573g, etc). Yes I tried your steps, with no luck. Then when I took out the CMOS battery and main battery for a few minutes, then reconnected and powered the laptop with main battery and CMOS battery but without charger connected, it turned on. Then when laptop when to sleep then I tried to turn it on again, I had to press power twice before it turned on with the blue light. However the screen remained black. I shut down the laptop, then when pressing power, the blue light blinked once, but the laptop does not turn on. Thereafter, when pressing power, the blue light does not blink at all.

For a computer that wont turn off, press and hold the power button for up to a minute to turn the computer off. If that fails, remove the battery and unplug the power adapter to force a shut down. What happens after that, when you try to turn the computer on?

Hi, I have watched your video to try and fix my laptop, unfortunately it didn't work for me ... I have an Acer Aspire 7 and when I press the power button, it goes on and off every 2 seconds. It does it about 5 times but the screen stays black. I have had this issue before, and managed to fix it by pressing a combination of hotkeys. This allowed me to reboot the computer and enter a safe mode where I could repair the starting of my pc. I can't remember how I did it and can't find the tutorial anymore, could you please help me out ? I have searched the internet for many hours, but it just doesn't work this time ...

[@PC_Monkey]

If, after all these steps, you have not been able to find the issue, your most likely looking at a faulty component preventing the motherboard from working or a motherboard issue. I would start troubleshooting each component, starting with the charger and power jack. You can see those two videos here; kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3PLpIl-nsmYfac & kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqHEk6mog8aimrc. You can also try replacing other components like your Power Button to see if that is the route cause. If none of those are the issue, you would then be left with a motherboard replacement.

My son’s Acer nitro 5 (an515-54) has a problem. Bought new charger and battery, installed battery earlier today but no change… so basically it’s not getting any power AT ALL. I plug the charger in and the light on the charger “power box” goes out until I unplug it from the laptop… or either it’ll flicker but either way, no lights at all on the laptop itself… so idk man at this point. It’s been a good one as he’s played fortnite on it heavy for 2 years now.. figured it would’ve lasted longer than that.. it would always get kinda hot which I’ve heard most of the nitro 5’s do that and that it’s built to withstand it… it has me confused as heck and don’t know what to do next.. guess I’ll go buy him an asus or msi next… are there any “non gaming” laptops that would run fortnite smooth enough?? Bc that’s basically/ literally all he will use it for as he’s only 10. Thanks man for the info and for the reply if you happen to see this!

[@PC_Monkey]

1. Sounds like your on the correct video. Have you tried the steps seen here? 2. Just so you know, over heating situations can be hard to troubleshoot just one issue as multiple different components and boards including the motherboard itself, could all be faulty. An overheating computer can be damaging multiple different components if not resolved. First, make sure that the fan and vents are clean and clear. If you need help accessing the fan, let me know what brand and model computer you have and I can help you get inside it. If that does not fix the overheating issue, then try replacing the thermal paste on the CPU and if needed, the GPU as seen here; kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZDNZXqGn9WUrc0. If that fails too, replace the CPU

[@PC_Monkey]

If a computer turns on and works well before I enter it but does not turn on after, its usually due to something being accidently unplugged, made loose or damaged. I would go back in and make sure all components and wires are secure. Especially the Drives and the Power Tran parts.
