Hello, I am experiencing problems with an Acer Aspire 5520 5219, AMD Turio 64 with Windows Vista.

The Laptop turns on then never hits the post screen then powers off and back on. It does this repetitively and for as long as you will let it. First I thought the battery. So I just simply unplugged the battery and plugged the power cable into the wall. Still same scenario. I have now removed the memory and tried booting it.. Still same scenario. I am pretty much figuring it is the motherboard but I know very little about laptops ive always been a desktop guy. Any explinations for me or tests ? I will continue to pull out the following.. CPU, GFX Card, Etc. Untill I can get it to pass the post screen and into the windows screen. If anyone has any solutions or recommendations I would greatly appreciate them.

hi
ive the same laptop with the same problem ive taken out all the bits you mentioned but no joy, my memory gets very hot very quickly does yours? looks like the main board has had it, i think the bios maybe shot or someone has done a bad bios upgrade
if i take out the battery and mains press esc and fn button while holding down the on button for about 15 sec, let go of start button keeping esc/fn buttons pressed
with your spare hand plug in mains and turn on mine doesnt do the loop then but still nothing on screen
any tech guys out there wanna advise?




why do my feet smell and my nose run?
