Acer 1652 wLmi not booting

Hi

I've an Acer 1652, and sometimes, when press ON/OFF button I hear the fun working, and the button ON/OFF turns green, however the screen remains black, and it is either impossible to get into the bios screen.

Usually the computer starts up if i turn it upside down, and if i shake it gently.

Lately, it takes much more time until it decides to start up.

Anyone knows what's happening? Any clue?

Thnks

When was the last time you take it apart and give it a good clean up? New thermal paste?

cheers ...

The last it worked with no prob, a few months ago.
The first time i didnt care. And after, it worked fine for a while. New, since 3 weeks, it happens sometimes, not always. For example this morning i spent a large part of it, trying turn on.

The thermal paste was change few months ago.
Tks

I would try the clean up one more time, with thermal paste applying to CPU and GPU. Try also re-seating ram modules and hard drive.

Tks a lot. i'll try

Actually, there's a detail that i dont know if it is important or not for diagnosis.

When the laptop is able to start up. The fun stays working ad eternum. It is always working.

And that is the good news. The reason I suggested a good clean and re-seating hardware before anything else

cheers ...
