My aspire 5100 turns on and shuts right back down

Hi

disconnect the power cable and remove the battery and then press nad hold the power button for a minute. then connect every thing back and then see if the screen comes on.
in case it does not then again remove the battery and power cable and remove the hard drive and ram and put it back in again.
and then check still does not work see if the screen comes on an external moniter, still if it does not come on call ACER if it is under warrnty they would give you free repair.

Acer aspire one, won't wake up from sleep mode, screen blank

I'm having the same problem, but I don't want to have to turn off my computer EVERY time it does this. (I have not been able to shut down the laptop normally because it goes into sleep every time.) I've heard that after 3 hours it builds up an eletrical charge and you have to take the battery out, but I havn't had it on for 3 hours at a time.

My Acer Aspire 5100 wont start up correctly

Try removing the battery and connecting the AC adapter then see if it boots up.
Reinstall the battery and keep the AC adapter connected and see if it boots up, if so leave it charge the battery for several hours.
If none of these work, get a replacement as there is a more segnificant problem.
I hope this helps.
Good Luck.
