[SOLVED!] Acer Predator Helios 300 PH312-52 wont Boot!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Weird! My Predator Helios 300 wouldn't boot even after continuously charging for hours.
Solved by removing the battery, freezing it for some minutes, and reinstalling it after it had warmed up to room temperature.
To prevent this avoid completely draining Li-ion Laptop batteries

    I don't know who you are, i don't know where you live but I'm gonna find you and thank you personally! My 2 months old helios 300 had exactly the same issue and your video saved me. Mentioning that i didn't actually removed the battery i have just unplugged it from the motherboard and powered on the laptop with it's power supply and it worked. I've reconnected the battery plugged in the power supply, started it again and everything looks good. Thank you good Sir for making my day better!

    Being an old IT hack, I was aware of the “remove the battery” trick, and had tried that and it did not work. Seeing this video, I noted one difference….remove the battery cable, plug in power and power it up without the battery. Came right up. Shut down and plug-in battery and all was well. I would add that my laptop was unused for a couple weeks while I was out of town and likely had a low battery that charged over night while i contemplated rearing this thing open.

Came home and it would light up the blue light no no boot or noises or fans. Took your advice, removed battery, placed power chord in, booted up great. Battery back in, now all of a sudden she wants to work!! Thank you !!

    100! There's obviously a charging circuit logic error and my experience tracked your instructions completely. Worked just like you explained (including the abrupt power down while still plugged in!) and I'm back up and running after only 10 minutes of removing and replacing a dozen small screws (2 on the battery.) My particular edition of the Helios 300 has a slightly different configuration, with the plug on the back and no red charging LED. But it went just like this otherwise. Oh, plus, I didn't put the battery in the cooler because your video made it clear that it was the charging circuit logic error, not a mechanical failure. But I might invest in another UPS for this particular setup that I leave turned on most of the time. Occasional power losses will mean having to do this annoying (but simple!) partial disassembly. Thank you and the Lord be with your spirit!

    pressing the power button down that long on laptops usually discharges all the residual power left in the battery and in a situation where the initial problem was extremely low battery charge to sufficiently power up the laptop, it might have made it worse. You can try plugging the AC adaptor into the computer for an hour and without turning it on follow the steps in the video. Hopefully, that helps. If that doesn't work you might need to replace the battery.

    Your battery probably needs the kickstart then. Usually happens when the power is drained below what it needs to start charging. Take it out, place it in a freezer for some minutes, let it warm up and try charging it again.

    @@Demowan I don’t think there is a way to do that. I had some screws hidden behind warranty tapes on my model. If you still have warranty it would be better to take it to an authorized technician without voiding the warranty.
