The laptop worked great until recently. Booted quickly, loaded browsers, games, softwares quickly. Performed great, cooled well. Today, out of the blue, the screen quit working. I powered the computer down, restarted and it worked fine for about ten minutes, then repeated the problem. I did this a few more times, didn't fix the issue. It would boot into safe mode without issue, so I thought it may be a windows problem, but reinstalling windows didn't help. It is still covered under warranty, so I will be sending it to Acer for repair, but 4 months seems like a very short life span for a computer I used for only 2-3 per day, maybe 3 days per week.
