My acer laptop will not

Reasons could be:
1. BIOS battery is dead.
2. RAM chip has loosen up in the slot.

Open the CPU, and look for BIOS cell (it would look like a quarter coin). Try replacing that. Also check for RAM; take it out clean it with a dry cloth, blow the slot with dry air to take out dust particles and place it firmly back into the slot.

Hope this would kick start your PC again.
