I have an acer aspire one aoa150 that starts to boot and shuts down afer about 10 seconds

Safe Mode and System Restore can fix startup issues in an Acer Aspire One, but if the computer won't even load the boot screen, the problem could be related to the basic input/output system (BIOS).
The Acer Aspire One 110 and 150 are two models that can have BIOS-related problems that prevent the computer from booting.
You can upgrade the BIOS through a USB flash drive to repair this issue.
If you are able boot past the startup screen, but can't sign in to Windows, you can use Windows Advanced Boot Options to bypass startup problems.

Go to the Acer website (see Below).
http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers
Click "Support," then select "Download" from the menu on the left.
Select "Netbook" as the product family.
Click "Aspire One" as the product line. Select "AOA110" or "AOA150" as the product model.


Click the "BIOS" tab.
Click the download button and save the file to the desktop.


Go to the desktop when the download completes.
Double-click the file to open it.


Drag-and-drop the folder to the desktop.
Double-click the folder to open its contents in Windows Explorer.


Double-click the "BIOS_Acer_3310_A_AOA110 & AOA150" folder.
Double-click the "Dos_Flash" folder.


Insert a blank USB flash drive into a USB slot.
Drag-and-drop the "3310.fd" and "Flashit.exe" files to the flash drive.


Right-click the "3310.fd" file. Click "Rename."
Change the file name to "zg5ia32.fd" and press "Enter."


Connect the AC adapter to the power jack.
Hold down "Fn" and "Esc" with one hand, then press the power button with the other.


Release the "Fn" and "Esc" keys when the power indicator light comes on.
Wait at least seven minutes for the system to fix the BIOS and repair the Acer Aspire One startup issues.
The computer will restart automatically when the process is complete.

Other Models

Turn on the computer.
Press "F8" before the Windows logo appears to access the Windows Advanced Boot Options menu.


Scroll to Last-Known Good Configuration.
Press "Enter" to load Windows.
If the OS fails to start up, hold down the power button for 10 seconds to turn off the computer.


Press the power button to turn the Acer Aspire One back on. Press "F8," then select "Safe Mode" from the options.


Log in to Safe Mode. Click "Start," "All Programs," "System Tools" and then "System Restore." Click "Next."


Select the last working restore point from the options. Click "Next."
Click "Finish" to run System Restore and recover the Acer Aspire One to a previous state.

Follow the steps below,

Step 1: Shut down your PC completely.
Step 2: Turn on the Power button.
Step 3: As soon as you turn it on start hitting the F8 key on your keyboard until you get to a black screen called "Windows Advanced option". (If you don't get to that that screen but you end up reaching the blue screen than that means you have delayed in hitting the F8 key. start again from step 1.)
Step 4: As soon as you reach "Windows Advanced option" use your down arrow keys to choose an option called "Last know good configuration".
Step 5: Select that and HIT ENTER.
Step 6: your PC will boot to the windows.

Try booting without the battery installed, remove / reseat the memory, try booting with just one stick installed.

That's pretty much all you can do with aspire ones.

Let me know if any of those "tricks" work.

check your memory cards

hello:
you have checkt power suply, if ther are not mutch power read amp are then this wil happend also clean the cooler on the bottem with pressed air and also outlet on the site of laptop

Hi frnd..
Go to safe mode and create a new user account... also delete ur prevoius accont.. make sure u click on the option DELETE ACCOUNT ONLY.. the files of the deleted account will be stored in the folder with the deleted account name on the desktop of the new account.. also update the BIOS from the vendor site... Take care..

You didn't say what you have tried, but if you go into the control panel, select > Power Options, ithen n the left side panel > "Choose when to turn off the dispaly." Adjust the setting according to using the battery or plugged in. You can also pick "Change when the computer sleeps" and make adjusments there.

Another thing you can be aware of is the life of the battery. If it is low, it will shut down also.

the only thing u hv to do is to reload the operating system

Take out the battery,unplug the power cord,and hold down the power button for 30-45 seconds,Then put the battery back in,plug the power cord back in and start the computer.

Try from the Start Button, select the RUN command and type in:

chkdsk c: /r

It will open a black box saying it cannot perform when Windows is running and do you want try perform the check disk upon your next reboot. Type the letter Y and hit enter ...

Shut down and reboot. It should launch the disk check.

That MAY fix it. If not, you will need to find someone with installation disks ... :(
