How do I turn on a acer aspire laptop that haven't been used in years
Here is basically what happening here. It's an acer aspire one from my parents that hasn't been used since we moved out in our second home. I was hoping to retrieve some old files and music from my parents and use it again for school activities but it cant turn on. So here's the problem;
Whenever i press the power button, the button lights up and the fans go on full rpm, after that, for a moment the components seem to gone completely silent and seems to be not working but after like 3 minutes the fan starts running like normal and the harddrive makes a clicking for a short time than the clicking stops, after that the harddrive sounds like a normal drive, no clicking and spinning just fine from the sound of it. And the laptop seems to be heating up to like a normal laptop in the keyboard and the touchpad area. The heat seems to come from under ( i think ) the either the ram or card slot thing area, maybe even the morherboard. I have tried connecting a external monitor, the vga cable was pretty nice and tight and not loose, after all of that still no output on the screen or the monitor.
I have already asked reddit about this, but it is sure taking a while to get a response. What could be the problem here? Please let me know
Is this a good question?

@kashosoft I am confused. Are you the original poster of the question? If not, then we have possibly not addressed your issues. What make and model computer and what issues does it have?
