Audrisu,
Can you give more description on how it “doesn’t start”? Do you see any LED activity; do you here any sounds from the laptop? Is it completely dead?

Mike,
Can you access the wireless card? First of all, I would try to reseat it. Just remove it from the slot and put it back. Overtime a wireless card connector pins can get oxidized and have to be cleaned.

I have an Acer Aspire 3000 and I can’t seem to get the Wireless to work, no matter what I try. It worked fine every day for a year, but when I booted up this morning, nothing.
In Device Manager for the Broadcom 802.11g Network Adapter I get the error “This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31).”
I tried uninstalling it and installing it with new drivers, but it doesn’t seem to make any difference. Any advice?

I’m trying to take apart my acer aspire 1520 and it keeps getting hung up. Does anyone have an actual dissassemble manual for it? thanks.

I have a Acer Aspire, the battery is reconogized in the power meter in the control panel, but it will only work with the power adapter plugged in. I have replaced the original battery with a brand new one, still the same symptoms. After disassembling the laptop there is a 2 burnt chips, on the motherboard, not exactly sure if they are resistors, compacitors, or what exactly. The numbers on the component are: 4800B, W42B. If you have any suggestions please let me know. Thank you

Daniel,
I think your laptop shuts down because the CPU overheats. Another symptom of overheating – the laptop runs slower then usual. It might happen because the heatsink is clogged with lint or the CPU fan stopped working. I am not familiar with
Acer laptops but I guess it has some openings in the CPU area so the hot air can get out. Buy a can of compressed air and blow inside the openings. See if it will fix the problem.
Turn on the laptop and listen for fan to start spinning. The fan should start spinning before the laptop shuts down. If you cannot hear it then most likely the fan is bad and should be replaced.

Acer Aspire 1520: It started going really slowly tonight, so I thought hey I know I’ll run the recovery and ghost the OS back to the original state, see if that makes any difference. Trouble is, now it just shuts itself down after about 1-3 mins of use, which is not nearly enough time to run the recovery..it gets past the BIOS and will boot from the CD, but thats about it, locks up and shuts down after having copied about 100 megs. So I tried formatting with an old windows cd, and then tried to install windows that way, same problem, only after slightly longer this time. I reckon something is overheating somewhere, I took the panels away that are available to remove at the back, and none of those parts (memory and wirelesss card i guess) are hot at all. (not that I would expect the wireless card to be hot, but hey! i could get at that, so I checked
) I’m getting a really bad feeling about the whole thing, it’s about 2 months over the end of the warranty now, so i won’t be able to get it looked at that way…any suggestions??
