Chosen Solution
I was using my Acer Aspire E14 laptop when it suddenly shut down out of nowhere. I charged it until it’s full. (The battery indicator lights are still working.) But whenever I press start button, it doesn’t turn on anymore. I can hear the mechanics inside start, but turn off immediately after about 5 seconds. Is it a fan failure? What could it be?
The device is not POSTing. This essentially means that the BIOS is not initializing due to hardware failure. The issue is most likely motherboard failure in which case you may be better off getting a new device. It could be another hardware issue too, while unlikely. Edit: Fixed my grammar.
There may be signs of overheating, computer will shut off to protect itself and you. There may be a buildup of dust with in the fan, I suggest opening it up and blowing the dust out (some use compressed air available in a small can ). If this does not fix the issue, fan may have to be replaced.
I have same kind of problem i thought it was black screen of death but its not . I was using this for power point i shut it down properly. Then i open it recently and i only hear fan and mechanics and very dark gray light then shuts . Im thinking if i need to replace new charger or batterry .brand Acer Aspire E14 Acer aspire E5-411-C1Y4
