To extend the battery life, reduce screen brightness, disable unnecessary background applications, and use battery saver mode. Also, ensure your laptop is updated with the latest power management drivers.
First, ensure the laptop is charged. Try a power reset by holding down the power button for 15 seconds. If it still doesn't turn on, check the power adapter and battery connection, and try booting without the battery installed.
Click on the network icon in the system tray, select your Wi-Fi network, and enter the password if prompted. Ensure the Wi-Fi is enabled by checking the Wi-Fi toggle in the settings.
Go to Settings > Update & Security > Recovery. Under 'Reset this PC', click 'Get started' and follow the instructions to reset your laptop to factory settings. Backup important data before proceeding.
Check for physical obstructions under the keys. Restart the laptop and try connecting an external keyboard to check if it's a software issue. Update or reinstall keyboard drivers if necessary.
Visit Acer's official website and navigate to the support section. Enter your laptop model and download the latest drivers. Alternatively, use Windows Device Manager to check for driver updates.
Ensure that the vents are not blocked and the laptop is on a hard, flat surface. Use a cooling pad if necessary. Clean dust from the vents and fans, and check for any software causing high CPU usage.
Consider using an external hard drive or cloud storage services. If possible, upgrade the internal storage to a larger SSD after checking compatibility with the laptop.
Use a microfiber cloth slightly dampened with water or a screen-cleaning solution. Gently wipe the screen and keyboard, avoiding excessive moisture. For the keyboard, compressed air can help remove debris.
Uninstall unnecessary programs and disable startup applications to improve boot times. Regularly run disk cleanup and defragmentation tools. Ensure your system is updated and consider upgrading RAM if needed.
