Hello,

1. When you press the power button to turn it on, do you see any thing on screen, It probably should show an ACER logo?

2. Can you see a faint image of your desktop (try to see it in dark place with flash light). If you do see a faint image it could mean your back light is broken.

3. When you press the power button do you get different LED's lighting up on the laptop? IE power LED, hard drive LED?

4. Does your computer give you any random beeps when it starts up?

Please answer these questions and I would be more than happy to work through this with your.

Thanks RCCT

Testimonial: "hi there and thank you so much When I press the power button it shows the ACer logo and it starts up like it normall world but it doesnt go into the login screen at all. It just turns into the grey screen, I dont hear any beeps or anything, I dont see any faint images , just the grey screen, and no other lights, light up when I do this It s tough one to figure out, and this Acer laptop is new by about 8 months Thank you for any assistance I really appreciate it Dayna"

Michelle-

I had the same problem with the cursor jumping around. My cousin bought the same computer and had the same problem! What she told me to do was go to the touchpad icon on the bottom right. Then click tapping and then check the box that says "tap off when typing."
It seems to have worked for us.

Acer Aspire One, Screen turns strip-y grey/white

hi there, my sisters dell laptop does the same thing. My best guess is that a hard knock on the graphics card and knocked a few pins out of it. This is something that a average person can not do. My suggestion is to bring it to a computer shop and tell them that you think it's the monitor connections.

Turns on but wont go pass the startup screen

Try to put an operating system boot disk in your drive then turn on laptop.
When the screen says press any key to boot from cd/dvd press a key.If it is vista when you do boot from cd it will give the option in the lower right corner to repair-click on this-select repair startup option.if that fails try a re-install of your op sys.

Crystal eye webcam

Sounds like there is another application interfering with the web cam software that is starting in your account. It would either have something to do with another video playback device/program or something trying to access the camera. Check the programs in the tray near the clock and if you have no luck there try Start -> Run -> type "msconfig" -> select the startup tab and check the list of programs starting up there.

Monitor on Acer staying gray

have you tried to the "function+8" (or the number to transfer the signal to a monitor) when you are on the laptop with grey screen?
Did you said that grey, means that there is light on the laptop, but no colors, or that tha screen is not turned on?
