I have an Acer laptop (5738G) and I am very pleased with the way it works. I have absolutely no problem. Of course there could be a model where something went wrong - you have warranty for that. I am sure that there is no brand with zero problems.
My Acer is doing this exact same thing. It started off not being that bad but it's so bad now I can't even use it. Did you ever figure out the problem?
i had the same problem, so i just tried to fix it to my way, so i just have to say, punching the display will not work, it will just make ur display go broken, FTW!
I was so pissed that i just threw mi lap to my bed & went to my desktop pc shit!! Anyway it might be a bus problem
lol,all of you who said acer sucks are fucking stupid.why dont you just fucking look around youtube? if you do,you willl see the same problems happening with other people on the SAME laptop. i mean yah it fucks up,but every company has bum laptops every ounce in a while. check out there new netbooks ,nobody can compete with that.
ive owned a ibm thinkpad t23 for 9 years only the hardrive failed a toshiba satilite never had a problem sold it after 3 years my new samsung r580 has no problems but my bloody acer aspire 1 netbook has had soo many problems the battery failed twice speakers shorted out cooling fan failed and the power brick nearley caught on fire and i only had it for 2 years
fuck that ACER, mine ive got an *MB video card but it s colored gray in the setup menu, what the heck was that now, dont buy acer laptop and JVC video cam, condensation erroe for life
Did you mean Parkard Bell? Parkard bell is a Dutch computer manufacturer and a SUBSIDIARY of Acer.
I'm not really sure what you're saying too. "Acer just rebranded by Parkerd bell" doesn't really make sense to me. Are you saying that Acer is a brand of Parckard bell? Or vise versa?
ALL acer laptop had this problem. DON'T EVER BUY ACER AGAIN because they are just taking money from us in exchange for a USELESS product!!!! They will try to fix it at first but then the problem will occur again after a few months especially when your warranty is due already! such BOGUS COMPANY!!!

I've had an Acer laptop for 7 years ,it's stil working. Acer is NOT a bad brand, it depends on what models you buy. If you buy Acer Emachine, then u are screwed. If you buy a bit more expansive Aspire, then you're good. And if you had problems right from the start, then ask if you can get a new model.
@ultrawaregamestudios he has an acer aspire 5520g had it 13 months and it wont boot up.just went off it was working fine..shop says its the motherboard..thats what acer do.put cheap motherboards in to last a certain amount of time...if acer or anyone gave me a free laptop...the best specs...if it was an acer i would refuse it
@crash3uk i got exactly the same problem, but on my visit to the philippines i stumbled upon a little laptop repair shop and they change 2 of the resistors on the motherboard. good as new im reloading the software right now.
Really? There technical support for any of them (All being acer) is terrible, its not acer + a brand its a group! I think that all acers are terrible! But, some of them seem to work hopefully you have good luck in the future! Im sticking to dells... ive mde my mistake good luck! And sorry if isounded rude
i got the same problem as his in this video but my laptop is toshiba....any 1 can hep me plz ASAP? i dun wanna pay money to repair my laptop screen...
hey guys im just commenting on random videos about broken laptop screens anyways if you read this please help if you know how. see my LG laptop screen was broken because i punched my screen bcoz i was so mad XD (its my fault).
so im just asking if i replace my laptop screen will my programs be gone? or format?
Yeah I had an acer. I just upgraded to an HP laptop that came with windows7. The issue with mine was that it looked like i had cracked the screen even though i never dropped it.
a white liner appears on my laptop LCD screen,do i need to replace my LCD,sometimes it turned white that i can see the screen anymore..my laptop is acer 4920g..
I see this problem very often; usually it is the LCD ribbon cable which has dislodged slightly from the back of the LCD panel. To fix, unscrew and remove the front screen bezel, then unscrew the LCD panel and tilt it forwards so you can get to the back, then carefully remove the tape which holds the connector to the back of the LCD in place, remove and reseat the connector and replace the peice of tape.
Reassemble and it should work fine; if it doesn't the LCD panel itself may be faulty,
Acer suxxx big time..I have heard many owning this brand compain abt the same & mine is no lesser!! As i watch this time,the screen has started dancing again...lol..Some one pls upload a video which can help many of us resolve this annoying problem & tht way v dont have too pay those greedy acer service centres for a silly problem like this one...
my son had this problem, take out 4 screws from of display,pull off the display border unscrew 2 screws off the hinges and youll see behind the screen is a floppy curcuit board, if looking at the screen face on youll need to push the curcuit board on the top left , so your putting pressure on the board and forcing it down hill towards the hinges, this can be done safely while still switched on, take care not rip off any components, then i used strong tape to hold it in place, worked for me ?
mine does the same thing but i have to like hold in a certain way when im surfiing the net or it gets all lines and flickery...its gotten worse in the past couple of weeks and i think its about to goooo :(
I Have Exactly The Same Problem On This Laptop I'm Using Now, I Just Connect It Up To A Monitor With a DVI Cable, You Might Want To Buy A Monitor For The Laptop As I Heard That After They Fix The Screen, (By Replacing The LCD Inverter (WD JanMetabolic) It Breaks After A While again, at 400 pounds a pop, a Monitor would be a better solution
You use the blue headed cable and plug it into the socket on the monitor and on the laptop, the socket should have lots of little prongs and a screw kinda hole either side
yes i plug it in using that. i turn on the laptop and they both display the same thing up to the windows logo then when it gets to the desktop its only on the laptop
Never buy Acer again. I had problems here in Spain but with a LCD TV 37 screen from this bloody brand. Problem started just after one month we bought the TV. I got 3 repairs in 2 years warranty, waiting for months to get repaired each time. A shame. I've started a legal acction against them now.
i know,acer dont want to know they only want money all the time,how can you buy a laptop and it last 18 months,having 3 repairs in between. i read one lad repairs acer laptops and they keep him in business,so at least their helping someone.
We brought this acer laptop for our son 18 months ago,had problems right from the start..terrible. screen flickers,lines half screen missing,acer just want money,money, money,not helpful at all. does anyone have any ideas on what this might be,we checked cables,look ok,might be inverter,lcd/screen. been checked on outside monitor works fine,,any ideas anyone?

After 18 months with my Acer Aspire
-power cord over heated and burned out. acer charge £40 for an official new one (not that i would buy their crap)
-machine is unbelievably slow
- screen has now deteriorated to an unusable state.
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY - FOR THE SAKE OF AN EXTRA £100 YOU CAN BUY ONE THAT LASTS MORE THAN 18MONTHS (THAT'S £28 FOR EVERY MONTH THAT I'VE HAD IT).
