Acer Aspire 4553 won't boot up
I need your help people! I have a practically brand new ACER ASPIRE 4553 (1 month old, max) and I was experiencing some reboot failures and also having problems turning the computer on, how's that? Well, for example when rebooting the computer it did not turn back on (kept a black screen, no sounds, in other words wasn't booting). So I manually turned it off by holding down the power button and then back on, sometimes it took a couple of tries to make it work but usually that did the job.
The same logic goes for powering it on form the start..
Now, at this moment the computer won't boot up at any means, not that I know of.
I noticed that the HDD light isn't blinking at all, So I though that maybe for some reason the computer could not access the HDD, the other LED indicators (< is that correct?!) aren't blinking either, actually they blink just one time when I hit the power button and then stop. The power button stays on.
So I did some research and found that it could be a BIOS problem, the solution I found is for the Acer Aspire One notebook, therefore I couldn't figure out a way to make that work on the 4553, didn't even try 'cause I know how risky messing with the BIOS is.
*--* Quite a text right there hum? Okay, so, here I'm.. Can anybody help me, please? I honestly don't know what else to do.
BTW, here are the articles I found: http://apevere.blogspot.com/2009/01/...ck-screen.html / http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-9...-won-t-boot-up
A little more research and I found that this problem is called "The Black Screen of Death", motherfukc***, sorry..
Found this site http://www.acerlaptoprepairs.info, there are a few articles showing how to recovery the bios and stuff but there is none regarding my model, 4553. I'm honestly giving up hope. I'm running out of time too. Am I in the wrong section? 'Cause nobody seems to have interest in helping me.
