Hi all, I have an insteresting issue, i have a acer aspire 5552g running win7 and the latest bios (upgraded it to try to fix this issue) I see when looking at google that there are quite a few Acers that have a similar problem and i think i have tried most if not all of their fixes. The issue is that you turn the laptop on, and the power lights come on, but nothing on the screen. No post, nothing. I can hear the hdd, dvd and fan start but the screen stays blank. I saw of some forums that it could be a corrupt bios so i used Acers flash utility to upgrade the bios from 1.3 to the latest. Pressing PF2 or PF8 to jump to setup or safe mode does nothing, sometimes.

And i do mean sometimes, pressing FN and ESC will get it to boot to windows, but it is rare and this issue is very intermittant. I have tried removing the battery and the bios battery, and discharging the power by holding power key for 30 seconds, and starting on mains, but no luck. If and when i do get the machine to go into windows, it seems to behave itself most of the time. Although i have noticed that on a few occasions (even when im in the bios) the touch pad and keyboard stop responding? If it only happened in windows i would suspect driver problems, but in the bios as well????

Does anyone have any suggestions for a fix please? I am pretty tech savvy and can strip the laptop down if needed. Thanks Enopho. Hi, sorry should of said, yes tried external screen.

Still nothing. There is no logo at all, as the screen is black. It looks like it has no power, but every now and again it fires up ok. I have already checked the video cables are connected to the mainboard, and i have dropped the hard drive into an external dock to ensure the data is there, i have tried swapping memory, and removing memory to test it, i even put the memory into another laptop and it works.

But seriously if you type acer aspire black screen on bootup, there are loads and loads of results, i think i have tried them all now - the biggest clue for me is that when the screen does come back and i go into bios, the keyboard and touchpad might not work in there - the next reboot after that - black screen! I cant seem to find out what might cause a keyboard and touchpad not to work in the bios? I have already flashed the Bios sucessfully to the latest version, i thought that would of nailed it. Keygen Zeta Producer 111. And it did boot up after. At least 20 times (off and on) and then the kbd and mouse stopped on a restart and then next reboot. Black screen. I just registered to comment here.

The same happened to my 5551G. It sounds like it starts when I press Power, but then it stops.

No BIOS, no boot, just black screen (and not the powered black). It doesn't do anything via HDMI or VGA output. After mate flashed BIOS it worked for a few on/off cycle, and now dead again A local laptop service diagnosed it, and they said it's the GPU. Did you use HDMI a lot? Can that be the cause?

And when did it happen to you? It happened to me after 2 years. Bob Dylan Live 1966 Zipper on this page. Maybe killswitch? I hope somebody finds something out. If I do, I'll be back for sure. I had this issue with an Aspire 5750 laptop.

I got it in for maintenance. Disassembled the whole thing, cleaned it from dust, wiped the old heat paste from the processor, put new one on it and assembled everything carefully.

When I booted it up after all I got nothing but the spinning from the fan and power light on. After one day and a half of disassembling and assembling back and forth and searching like crazy for the possible reason I remembered the problem I had recently with a Lenovo G550 laptop. Same problem and I got it fixed by clearing the short circuit it made in one of the usb ports.
