Hey guys, I desperately need your help. Got myself the Acer 4745G during last month's PC fair as well, but it went 'KONG' (blackout) last week out of a sudden Tried restarting it with and w/o the battery but it only managed to run Windows 1 out of 20 attempts. Was too caught up with work recently so hadn't got the time to send it to the service center (BTW, I heard the service center "Highpoint" is really a turn off).

The saddest part is I haven't installed ANYTHING into it yet (NOTHING!! no games, no programs, no whatever sh*t!), other than just transferring a few pictures from my phone. I only used it to watch 2 movies through DVD and that's it. When i switch the power on, the power supply LED will light up blue but the HDD light will NOT! I'm expecting that it must be the HDD which is having problems or something. Please do correct me if I'm wrong

Still considering whether to pay Highpoint a visit this weekend or not, but I really hope that the experts here in Lowyat would be able to solve the problem or give helpful advice!

Thank you guys first
