Again!!
Anyone had any similar probs? Its basically not charging, seamed like the cable wasnt staying in place and at first was bareable but gets to the point where you just cant type because its charging then not charging and charging and not charging lol
Anyways changed cable, was okay for a week or so but has started to do the same?
Someones mentioned it could be the battery, but then it could be the part where the charger connects to the laptop.. if so is it screwed?
Thankies
Sorry if doesnt make much sence!

what you wanna try is removing the battery. On the gold pins on the laptop not the battery place your finger on them and hold down the power button for 2minutes this should solve your problem:y:

Gets rid of the built up static in the laptop i think. Sometimes works, have you tried moving the cable about when its plugged in? Could be a dodgy connection on the actual laptop, thats what mine was :(

Go pc world and get 10 months interest free lol
Thatll teach you to but an acer! You dont have to go for the greatest brand but at least take advice and get a decent laptop. I would not recommend finance unless you have too.
Theres plenty for sale at reasonable prices that have good specs, high fsbs etc. Just look in the for sale section.

Pc world offer 48 month finance but if you pay it off in 10 months its interest free so basically buy now pay in 10 months.
