Hello, I am trying to fix my laptop, and wanted some advice or tips on the situation.
It doesn't start correctly, when I press the power button, the light comes on, the fan starts running(sometimes), but it immediately shuts itself off. I do it again and again, until it finally turns on and doesn't shut itself off, and takes me to my log in page. Sometimes this process takes 10(mins) sometimes 40(mins).
Has anybody encountered this problem before? Or have an idea of what it might be(like power or CPU)?
Any help would be very appreciated.
Oh and it's an Acer Aspire.
Thanks!
