    Hi all!

    I have an Acer Aspire 5920G. The last month I have had problem with the time in the computer. Its never correct. Sometimes its starts witch 27 April 2007 00:00 witch I think is the building time for the notebook.

    Ihave a problem with the powerbutton to. Sometimes I need to push it maybe 15-20 times for the notebook to start.

    I have formate the nootbook and it did not help.

    I have a similar problem. My laptop (5920g) sometimes does not power-off (although the entire boot down procedure has finished), does not restart (does boot down but not boot up), does not start (after some time or after tilting the display or after tapping the laptop it might work).

    There has been no major updates to my system, no BIOS updates, no system updates (as it doesn't power on at all sometimes it can't have anything to do with the OS, it doesn't even POST sometimes).

    Tried with battery, tried with power adapter, tried reconnecting the harddisk, tried letting it cool down a bit and then boot: didn't change a thing. I have had this problem for a week now..
