Power Failure - Acer Aspire 5920 Laptop

Tweet

I got an Acer Aspire Laptop 5920 2 years back. From past 2 years I did not face any problem with this laptop. I do not know the reason for this power failure may be power fluctuations in my house but suddenly my laptop got shutdown and when I try to start, there was no response from the power button. Later I checked with my power adapter, it does not respond if I connect my laptop (It starts blinking). If I disconnect from laptop, the light in the power adapter is not blinking. So I guessed it can be the problem with some ports inside my laptop related to power adapter. I verified with my friends and some of the blogs in the internet and later decided to give it to some private laptop repairer (Rajendra +91 9620201475). Now he told me today that my power ports has gone and I need to insert a new one and also display chip. So he was asking me to pay around 4,000 INR including service charges and taxes. Later I verified with some of my friends and with him again to bargain as I felt paying that much amount would be too much. But he did not agree to come down in the praise and he told if I go to any acer service center, those people will charge me around 6,000 INR. and thats how acer people are making money. I need to know if this is true? Later I decided to go with him. I thought if I go with someone else and if they say the same thing, they may charge me more... so better not to take the risk, I decided to give 4k. He told me to give me my laptop by tomorrow evening. Lets see if he still maintain his promise I will get my laptop safely. I will post you updated. Did you guys faced any such problems? If so share it with me and let me know if I am in trouble with this guy. Thanks for reading my discussion. Triguna
