Howszit? and Welcome to GtoG

Sorry that your Acer is "start-up challenged". First off, is this a notebook or a tower system? If it's a notebook, try removing the battery before powering up, (batteries do lose capacity over the years and can stop a notebook from starting). If it's a tower system, an unexpected shutdown maybe a bad PSU or hard drive problem. What did the Acer factory actually do? What is the op system and model number of your Acer?

I guess what we need is more info to help you better.

Cheers, and please let us know more about your system...
