I suggest that your best bet is to restore to factory settings.

If it fails, you have a power supply issue.

Good luck

Hi Miles,

I'm 78!

I need to know the make and model of your computer.

Regards

Good for you Ambucias

For still having your marbles lol.

It is a Acer Aspire one.

Thanks.

That's because I keep my marbles active on this site and walk 3 miles per day with my labrador dog.

Now here is you solution contained in this Kioskea "How-to".

It will make you marbles go in all directions.

I wish to remind you that going back to factory settings will erase all of your data. Hence you may need to reinstall software, drivers, reconfigure internet. The Aspire one is not recent, I forsee some problems if your operating system was not updated. Well it's better than a dead computer.

Good luck and God save the Queen

Cannot do the above because the computor will not boot up.

Regards.

Sticky wicket already!

Try to boot in safe mode, start the machine while taping F8, select safe mode then do the procedure indicated above. (If safe mode works)

Otherwise, you will need to use the disks that were supplied with the machine. That is, you insert the first disk and boot the machine.

That is as far as I can help you.
