Acer Aspire E5-575G-53VG: My games doesn't run anymore

Wed, 20 May 2026 05:54:21 -0700

I was using my laptop for casual gaming with light games such as age of empires 2 and csgo, it runs very well without lag and i can play for hours, suddenly one day when i was just opening age of empires, my pc just got freeze and then blue screen. The message was dcp_Watchdog_violation

I tried EVERYTHING! Unninstall the drivers, reinstaling the new drivers for the founders website, reinstall the windows, clean for viruses, reinstall all the games, clean the cache, clean the mobo and the fan cooler, and it doesn't solve it.

Im looking for build a pc, i saw some good laptops too such as aspire nitro series but i change my mind and i preffer to buy a rtx 5060ti or 5070ti for 1080p+ games.

Meanwhile im working for that i have my laptop here and i want to repaire it but need help. What can i do? I dont know if thermal paste can solve it.

Acer Nitro 5 AN515-55-55M1: USB replacment for the USB C side of computer.

Tue, 19 May 2026 14:38:50 -0700

Everywhere I look online for parts I am only seeing the IO board which has the audio jack, 2 USB ports, and an ethernet port. I am trying to find the board for the other side of the laptop with the USB-C, USB, and HDMI ports. Is this its own part? or are those ports directly connected to the motherboard?

Acer Aspire: No Bootable Device Found

Sun, 17 May 2026 23:31:21 -0700

I have an Acer Aspire V3-371 Series laptop here and it can't boot as it cannot find any Bootable device. I originally tried to reinstall Windows, that didn't work. So I tested the original HDD. It was defect to some degree. So I changed it out for a new one and installed Windows again. The PC worked! But just for a week or so before the exact same problem occurred again... Now I'm out of ideas what it could be.

Acer Aspire 3 A315: Screen going wavy and bright then just sits on black screen

Tue, 12 May 2026 22:23:41 -0700

It's actually an A314 series but only A315 shows. I don't know if that makes much difference since I'm not well versed in this stuff. Anyway, I had my laptop temporary fixed cause of a screen problem but then after a few days, said screen began showing wavy lines going upwards with the brightness too high even though in settings it's toned down. Turned it off then back on and has gotten me stuck on black screen since. The black screen itself lights up but never shows the acer logo to start and just sits in that black screen.

Acer Laptop: Case screw cannot be tightened

Mon, 11 May 2026 07:57:49 -0700

The case screw on the bottom of my Acer Swift 3 -SF315-52 is loose & the corner of the case separates each time I open the screen to view. I tried tightening it but the screw does not "catch" and it continues to resolve. How can this be correted?

Acer Aspire 3 Series: Repeated “Stop running this script?” pop-ups,malware or browser issue?

Mon, 11 May 2026 05:02:50 -0700

My laptop keeps showing repeated pop-ups saying ‘Stop running this script?’ from a suspicious domain like snconor.vg, and the pop-ups stack up until the browser/laptop becomes very slow.

I suspect it might be adware, a browser hijacker, or malware.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

What is usually the main cause of this?
Could it come from browser notifications, extensions, or an actual virus?
What are the most effective steps to completely remove it?
Is resetting the browser and running an antivirus scan enough, or would reinstalling Windows be recommended?

Acer Aspire V Nitro VN7-591G Disassembly: ACER Aspire Vn7-591G - where is the SSD?

Sun, 03 May 2026 11:39:12 -0700

My sister has an Acer VN7-591G laptop that won't boot (black screen, no output to HDMI)

She wants me to get the photos off her hard drive.

No problem I thought. I've popped out the HDD, but it is empty other than an old "iMovie Backup" directory.

Looking at the specs, it is supposed to be a dual HDD/SDD, so I assumed that the Windows installation and all her photos are on the SDD

However, there is no SSD in the machine! According to this guide:

https://www.myfixguide.com/manual/acer-a...

there should be an M.2 SSD on the bottom left of the motherboard. But that slot is EMPTY!!

How, if there is nothing but a few random files on the HDD was this machine ever booting? Is there somewhere else that Acer hide the SDD? I certainly can'y see anything...

It is so strange - it looks like it had an SSD (As the hard drive is empty), but its not there! What am I missing?!?

TIA
