Greetings from Argentina!...

Ok so, I've got a 17" Aspire 5, when I put it under any sort of medium high load it just stops charging and show blinks the status LEDs which I suppose mean it get's in power safety mode. Only notable things I can see being an issue are my CSME firmware which isn't the one from Acer because the Acer one was a vulnerable version relative to the current firmware I have installed (latest for KabyLake / KabyLake Refresh), the PC being only able to supply 0.05W to the battery on load spikes, and the slightly loose power inlet.

I mostly suspect the latter but it seamingly started happening...

Hi everyone,

I hope you're doing well! I'm urgently looking for the BIOS file for the Acer H81H3-M4 Rev 1.0A motherboard (used in some Acer Veriton models).

My system isn’t working properly and I believe re-flashing the BIOS could solve the issue. If anyone has this file or knows a safe source to download it, I’d really appreciate your help! 🙏

Thanks in advance to anyone who can assist! 💻❤️

Hi everyone,

got an Acer Helios 500 Laptop (PH517-51) for diagnosing with a strange issue:

The laptop runs for a while (1-2 hours, sometimes less) and then suddenly shuts completely off, like someone pulled the power cord and restarts immediately after on its own.
If this happened once, then the laptop only runs for a few minutes until restart.
This happens regardless while staying in windows or uefi or in a linux environment.

At first I thought of a normal overheating issue, but as I monitored temps with HWInfo64, nothing seems very hot.
...

Please modify my bios. It's an Insyde H20 Rev 5.0. The file is attached. Also if someone is able to, please explain how to do it in the responses or in a pm. Thanks from advance!...

Hello guys,

I have an Acer A514-55-511P liquid damaged, and one component seems to have failed, but I can't figure out what this is.

Thank you. ...

Hi guys,
On motherboard ACER AN515-52 type LAF951P.
I fixed issue with not starting computer (it was the PQ201 component not working properly).
But after checking everything I have still an issue with secondary SATA connector JHD1 (for HDD typically).
Basically some HDD spin but are not detected by the bios.

​

Already tried following:
checked the 4 data lines
#2 RDSATA_PTX_C_DRX_P4 => CO18 (10nF seems OK) => RO24 (0Ohm measured at 0.25Ohms).
#3 RDSATA_PTX_C_DRX_N4 => CO17 (9.68nF seems OK) => RO23 (0Ohm measured...

Hello, forum people.

I have an Acer Nitro 5
Model Number: AN515-55 Part Number: NH.Q7NSI.001
Motherboard: Compal GH51M LA-K861P Rev 1A with 1650 Ti graphics.

My laptop was working fine until I made a grave mistake of changing the thermal pad and paste because my laptop was getting old and pretty hot. After changing and successfully testing temperatures, I was shocked when I tried to connect my external display, a 1440p 75Hz monitor, to it. My display never showed up; it always said 'no signal.' I tried swapping the HDMI cable, using both source 1 and 2 on...

Hi guys,
I currently trying to figure out why the laptop of my friend did not charge.
It is a Acer AN515-42 (Ryzen 5 2500U), I manage to make it works on AC and battery but no charging.
At first it was not working on Battery, I discovered that PQ201 was knocked off and replace it => work on battery precharged on another computer.
I also checked the small resistors between PQ312 and PQ201 and even if they are ugly values are OK.
My issue, when I plug the charger computer off, it drains 0.25A during few seconds with amber light on (charging) then amber light blinks...
