@Aaron16 I guess I tried to flash the wrong bios and at one point it got stuck and didn't respond to anything, so I unplugged it and remove his battery. it's dead since then.... is that bad? any idea? :D
I gave up on my last netbook because the charger and posted it up for sale on ebay and its going for a whole $40. What a waste. SO anyways big surprise our 2nd one we have just like it now has the exact same issue! Their out of warranty so i'm screwed. Anyways the 2nd one I need files off the hard drive, do you know where I could get some sort of harness to conect its hard drive to a working computer so I can access the files? I can't afford to pay anyone to do this.
@bluefrog85 Sorry to hear that you couldn't fix it, maybe the jack problem caused something to get fried.
To get the files off look for a usb 2.5inch sata harddrive enclosure, they can be found on ebay for under $10 just search "usb 2.5 sata enclosure" and pick one, you don't need anything fancy. You will have to remove the bracket from the harddrive that holds it into the netbook so it will fit into the enclosure.
@Aaron16 Awesome, great info! =) Guess what my problem with both of them were? The power cords both went out at once! I don't know how it did it but yesterday as a last ditch effort I switched both ends of the ac adapter and frankensteined one adapter with the others cord, it works on both netbooks! ha. Ughh a wasted install of a dc jack though! ha. Anyways i'm super happy and you've been very helpful! Thanks for everything!
@bluefrog85 i had a loose DC jack on my netbook and it wouldnt charge so i just opened the computer ripped out the cords that connect to the dc outlet and spliced the charger wires and connected the two so it would charge it works fine ,im on it currently , its a bitch to put together but its worth it
@hustl3conMuscle210 Yes it sucks. I accidentally ripped up my keyboard connector off mine so now am using a wireless keyboard for it. ha. For my HUGE toshiba a wireless keyboard is awesome but its just funny to use with a netbook bc I usually sit it in my lap since its so small and light. On the toshiba I had the bright idea of finding the largest screen possible for watching movies at work. BIG mistake, the thing is so bulky. Ha.
Yes def worth saving, I spent 270 on mine brand new.
@bluefrog85 if you want to access files from your old HDD you can buy a transfer/clone kit from Best Buy. It was about 59.99. Or you can do what i did.. since i have anothter laptop to use, i bought an enclosure for my acer HDD. Bought it from amazon.com for about 20.00. That way you can just use that as a external unit...
@phreeknomenal Yeah thats what someone else told me to do, the enclosure thing. I got lucky though and my netbook just needed a new dc jack and power adapter. The bad is that I ripped off the connector for the keyboard on teh motherboard and its pins are so so tiny I can't solier it myself so I just bypassed its keyboard and have a wireless keyboard connected thru the usb port. Ghetto but works. Saved my $270 investment from going out the window. ha. Had that thing for two years now.
OH! Almost forgot. There was a loose connection on the keyboard and where it plugs in, the soldier came off. But the track pad and the power are still perfect and plug in perfect. Would keyboard not being connected make it not power on or charge?
SO do you have any idea whats going on? I bought the dc jack brand new and somehow still not getting it to charge or turn the computer on with it plugged in... Any advice would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
Hey I just put the new dc connector in and no soldiering required! ha. SO my issue now is that it won't power on and when plugged in, power lights don't come on. I've tried power cord from its twin netbook we have and its not working. When I get home i'm testing with another battery to see it power up which I think it will because it briefly kicked on and off bc it had a tiny charge from when I charged it last. Before I pulled the dc jack it only charged when you pulled the jack back and held it
@bluefrog85 Well, if it wont turn on with out the battery that means there is still a problem with the power jack, Maybe open it back up and check for any lose connections and make sure everything is connected the right way.
@Aaron16 I never shut it up again because I can't get the power lite to come on or it to turn on again while plugged in. I connected and disconnected all of the cords including power and just don't know wtf is going on with this stupid thing. OK well I guess i'll play with it a bit longer and prob just end up selling it on ebay if I can't fix. Thanks for the help.
Is the dc jack soldered in? I am about to get started pulling it apart and was wondering if I would need a solder gun to pull it off? I got a new dc jack off ebay that says its no solder and it has a wiring harness connected to the dc jack.. This will work or do I need a dc jack without the wires? Sorry to bother you, its just that am finding little to no info on this. Thanks!
@Aaron16 Ok awesome. Thanks for the awesome video! I have a emachine em250 but its supposed to be the same as yours so off I go. Lol. I'm guessing the new dc jack will fix my problem but you never know I guess. =) The dc jack wiggles and only charges when held a certain way. So must be a break in the wire or something. Tried new charger and still no charging.. Always something. lol.
i got a problem with d250-1530 a week ago, the wireless card was gone from the device manager, i formated and reinstalled os (windows xp) and when i just finished the installation the wireless card was there (without drivers of course) in the device manager, so i restarted the machine and when i was about to start the drivers install the card was gone again, everytime i reinstall os i can see the wifi card but when i reboot the machine it dissapears again to never return.........any ideas?
i dropped my netbook (i have a d250-1132) the screen dosent work....ive been using it plugged into a monitor for months...im interested in replacing the screen...is it necessary to open the bottom to replace the screen (to run the wire) or can i just use the remaining wire and plug it in at the screen itself?
The hardest part of replacing the screen is removing those two bottom screws. Just tape off around the screw covers and get an exacto knife, score ,then with just the edge of the blade to pop them out. I'm a granny and I replace the screen myself. Took about
Hi! good video....., In this moment I would like to replace my screen but I dont find the two screws in the botton. I could remove the screws in the top. Can you help me with myy problem?? or Could you give more information about that how replace the screem?? please!
@jjuanss There are screws under the black squares at the bottom, they are not the same as the top, you will need a blade to remove the thin plastic over the screws.
Hey I dropped my laptop yesterday and when I went to go turn it on only the fan was powered so no wifi or screen or anything else was on , then I tapped it kinda hard in certain spots on the bottom and turned it back on and it worked , now when I turn it off while it's on by clicking start and turn off it goes back to having only power to the fan so should I check if anything is loose
@BadmooddudeSky but my screen work cuz i tapped the computer around away from tthe screen and the computer worked again so i dont think its my screen but it could be
as i took my lap top a part i seen where the power jack is there was a two red wires and two black wires but only one red wire was connected should the other one be connected to.
This example really helped me take it apart, I made a diagram and had no problems with the disassembly, but I can't figure out what's wrong with my Netbook still.
It just powers off for no reason, even when running a very light version on Linux. I've had it almost 2 years and it only worked for the 1st year.
Thank god you made this vid, I had a guy come to me with a first for me toe ver saw, he'd somehow jamed the prong for the power cord to plug into/onto back half a inch in the laptop, no clue how he'd managed such a feat.
@djnblood52 I repaired it since I know what I'm doing Ive been at it since I was 2, but ye up to the panel covering the motherboard which you see him take off last.
I have a D250 and I was wondering if you can upgrade the graphics card? I've tried to find answers on google but I come up with nothing. Acer Store doesn't have anything useful either.
Is there any other way to get at the speakers? The audio jack in mine broke (sound no longer bypasses built ins) so I think my choices are soldering in a new one, carrying a USB audio jack or trying to take out the speakers. I don't really care about speakers, I just want to use my headphones with it.
Duuude! You need way less caffeine in your diet!!! :D
In other words the keyboard comes out easy if it's snapped from a side and not the top/middle spring-claw. Pop the right claws, pull 1mm to the right, push the sprig-claw, and pull out to right gently.
I thought, for a second, that you torn the bluetooth cable from the m/b ;)) but, later, I've seen the back of the top cover where there whose no bt adapter :P
Actually theres a really powerful magnet in the screen bezel. when you close the lid it trips a reed switch in the bottom half of the computer to let it know the screen is closed.
@Tracebeau weird somehow my acer d250 randomly (depends on how I hold it) senses that the screen is close... I had to turn off standby so now it only turns the screen black... still very annoying. what should I look for when I take it apart?
I have a d250-1990. It has a sticker with the bluetooth icon on it, which I thought meant that bluetooth comes with it. But Device Manager can't see it. If I need to re-seat the bluetooth, where would it be?
@jboidatrite You will have to take the top part off, if you look the the under bar there is a link to a photo set, one of the pics has the power jack in it.
@JC09NY Just make sure you push the tab all the way in, and maybe grab a key with your finger to help up it up a bit or stick something thin under the keyboard to help it up.
Aaron i need to repair the power jack on my acer, are all steps shown up to the keyboard removal necessary or can i just pop off the keyboard and go from there?
@SleepingForPeace You will probably need to remove the top case, so yes. You will need to do all the steps, you could probably get away with not removing the RAM. All the screws on the back losen that top case.
@Aaron16 do you know how you take out the bottom two pads? It's damn near impossible for me. They're the ones that are slightly indented... the first two were easy, but these are kind of a bitch.
hey...I just saw those pictures you uploaded in flickr...... superb!!!!...... just what I was looking for....... more than excellent. Thanks a lot aaron...... keep up..... :-)
Hi "Aaron16"..... I saw your previous video.... but this one is excellent. Perfect light, perfect speed...... everything's perfect :-) ..... I'm sure this video will greatly help to owners of this model netbook. Nice work. Thank you very much!
@djstarman Any 2.5 inch notebook hard drive should be fine, the 1tb ones might be a little to thick look for the ones in the 9mm thickness range, not in the 12mm (they may fit but I'm not sure)

Hey I have a question. Will I have to take apart the whole netbook to fix my power jack

@jboidatrite You will have to take the top part off, if you look the the under bar there is a link to a photo set, one of the pics has the power jack in it.

Hey Aaron is there an easier way to take out the keyboard I am having difficulty taking it out

@JC09NY Just make sure you push the tab all the way in, and maybe grab a key with your finger to help up it up a bit or stick something thin under the keyboard to help it up.

Aaron i need to repair the power jack on my acer, are all steps shown up to the keyboard removal necessary or can i just pop off the keyboard and go from there?

@SleepingForPeace You will probably need to remove the top case, so yes. You will need to do all the steps, you could probably get away with not removing the RAM. All the screws on the back losen that top case.

Aaron, How do I get the LCD sreen bezel removed to replace display? Thanks, Jamie
jb5730 1 year ago
@jb5730 There are screws behind the square pads on the corners of the screen.
Aaron16 1 year ago
@Aaron16 do you know how you take out the bottom two pads? It's damn near impossible for me. They're the ones that are slightly indented... the first two were easy, but these are kind of a bitch.

@NDanteDouglas Mine doesn't have any pads there, it has a square but there is no pad there.

@djstarman Any 2.5 inch notebook hard drive should be fine, the 1tb ones might be a little to thick look for the ones in the 9mm thickness range, not in the 12mm (they may fit but I'm not sure)

good job still never found out whats wrong with my screen but taking it apart and putting it back together seems to have fixed it
