Acer Aspire One Cusotmer Support - the worst in the biz!

I bought an Acer Aspire One (AAO) this fall and within weeks the screenblacked out upon booting. Rather than replacing my AAO , Acer referredme to a technical repair depot. After 6 weeks still no word - then twoweeks ago after calling Acer they said they would send me a new one on“back-order” - still no sight of it. Today when i called they said theyhave no idea when the “back-order” will be filled. Just wonderfulcustomer support - not! Wish i had bought a MacBook now…..

    I have an Acer Aspire One, purchased just over a month ago. Since then the display has failed 3x = (black screen) while the rest of the components (fan, HDD, led's) continue to function, suggesting that it is a graphics card type fault. Each time Acer replace the unit.... P.S. I use an external LCD in conjunction with the std display? The unit manages to survive 3 to 5 days with out any problems, then without and warning symptoms, it blanks off. Is this a latent defect in the aspire one range?

    My 3 month old acer aspire one appeared to be working fine when I went into the other room for about a half hour. When I came back the screen was black. I assumed it was hibernating...wrong. I haven't been able to awaken it. To turn it off I had to just hold down the power button. When I tried rebooting it, black screen again. I am not a techno-saavy person. I need help.

I bought my acer aspire 4736 last oct 2009,within a warranty period i found out that the unit I bought had a lcd monitor problem, then I returned it to the store where I bought it they fixed it by the acer...

It depends upon the situation of usage or might the lcd monitor that was replaced somehow crash again. Its must be a brand new one and at least for several months warranty,if ever need a replacement again and it turns into the same scenario, well some components need to be check cause everytime it replaces new lcd,it always crash.might some shortage takes place.

Which version of Linux is on your Aspire One?

If it is Linux Linpus Lite (which comes with the AAO as default) then you could try pressing ALT+F2 from the desktop to open the terminal(console) and type SUDO SU and try chaning the root password that way.

OR

I strongly suggest downloading Linux Mint (either version 7, 8 or 9) and installing it from a USB memory stick as Linux mint works incredibly well with the AAO.

I cant see my screen on my acer aspire one with linux installed its all green and yellow and blue,I want to try install win xp or vista from usb but I dont know how to set the computer to boot from usb as...

I mostly think that your screen is damaged, or maybe glass is shattered. Other less painfully thing is to check screen connection onto mainboard.

Search on internet how to upgrade acer aspire one netbook with HDD, and you will find detailed istructions about things you need in this situation and thats, opening acer aspire one. Its really tricky task to do, so i suggest you spent some quality time, an hour, hour and a half , in reassambleing all of that alone, and reconnecting main AAO netbook 8,9 inch monitor.

I hope i helped you with this small guide. Thats about it!

Acer aspire 3500 wont hold charge or turn on

remove the battery and see it the power comes on, if so bad battery, check the connector where the power plugs into the laptop, sometime this breaks or has a cold solder joint, you can test this by wiggling and looking to see if the power lights up. last and worst case is a bad main board.
