Acer Aspire M5640 Motherboard Layout (power issue)

I purchased the service manual. If anyone would like this SM. Shoot me a message and I can email it to you :-)

HI there. I came across your posting. I have an Acer Aspire 5640 -- The connecting wire from the on/off button got disconnected from wherever it goes to work.

I would greatly appreciate your forwarding that service manual my way. There must be a schematic or something that shows where the darn wire gets put.

Thank you for your time and for any help you can give.

I wouldn't mind a copy of this as well. I have an AcerPower P1000 with a blown surface mount fuse. The fuse has a P. and 250 printed on it. Got to love SM.!!! Maybe someone knows the manufacturer or value ??
Thanks,

I have a similar problem with Aspire 5640 motherboard. Lights on, but no POST.
I am an electronic engineer, I can troubleshoot the motherboard, but for that I need the diagram, or service manual. If you could email me a copy that would be terrific.

Hello guys, I'm having the same issue with this model of computer that you guys have listed. Is there some known issue with this model of acer not posting?

I'm having the exact same issue that you describe; my girlfriend's computer (Aspire am5640-u5401a) will start with the blue power on light, but it doesn't post no matter what I try. Is there a known issue with a fuse or anything? The only thing that preceded this problem is that her baby daughter spilled her formula on the keyboard, and three days letter the computer wouldn't post. I would greatly appreciate any help or suggestions that you could offer, as this is a very bad time for us to spend money on a new computer. Thanks.

Hey Richard, I would be interested to know what you came up with troubleshooting your motherboard. I can't stand not knowing what's really going on with my motherboard, and only having indirect evidence that the problem probably is the motherboard -- I'd like to get an idea of what might actually be wrong with my motherboard as well (even though it could be a million other things than your case, of course), to get at least some satisfaction out of this time consuming problem pin-pointing process.
