I have an Acer Aspire 5672, it just cut out & wont power up at all, Battery okay & power supply from mains ok (been tested). It just switched off & wont boot up again. Battery is charged & mains adapter glows red light when out of computer but as soon as attached it dims & then glows in second intervals
One thing you might try is to unplug it from the adapter and remove the battery. Let it sit a few minutes and replace the battery and try to start it again. If that doesn't work, then plug it in and try it again. If it still won't power up, you are probably looking at a motherboard that has gone bad. If it is still in warranty, then the company should fix it.

Thanks for the advice, I have already tried that & was hoping against all odds that it wouldn't be the motherboard as it is now out of warranty

Umax 2200 usb scanner & Vistascan 3.55u in Windows XP Scanner installs to the default XP scanning software, but I have not been able to install the scanner so that it works with the Vistascan software. I much prefer Vistascan as it is much more user friendly & offers more flexibility. Any help would be appreciated.
