Series of 15.6" Windows laptops by Acer directed toward casual users.

it will not boot but I can enter bios

I bought this laptop second hand as a dead unit, on examination I found that the I3 CPU had died, put a known good CPU in and turned on, Great, it started the POST, I get the Press f2 or f12 options, then the Acer Logo flashes up for a second or two then it hangs with the cursor in the top left of the screen, can anyone give help/advice?

PS:I can enter bios and see all devices, IE, Hard drive, CD rom and RAM, it can also see any USB devices I connect.

Things I have tried include removal of all USB devices, use of known good Ram, even removed the wireless module.

Basically probably ur boot.ini file broken or some necessary files ar mising. If you start ur pc with any boot disk like windows xp 7 8 and install new windows. I believe your problem will be fixed.
