Default Acer Travelmate 661LCi trouble

Hi group

My Acer Travelmate 661LCi died all of a sudden. Switched off without
any warning and stayed dead since then. Battery and charger are ok.
Seems to be the main power supply switcher. Any idea what to do? Acer
service wants to change the main board...
Help!

Daniel

usually power supply problems, and its most like built on to main board,
sometimes u can replace the voltage regulator (probably the only chip heat
sinked besides the processor) and other such parts but the service techs
will always just change the main board because they want your money and
servicing computer boards gets tricky as they have those extremely small
resistors and capacitors etc.
