I have been having some issues powering on my laptop for about a month. Every weekend, I try to turn on my laptop, and it refuses to do anything. Some mixture of removing parts like the SSD, RAM, or WiFi card seemed for a while to help, but every time, I would still need to plug in the laptop. Afte…

[image] John_Comeaux: Just today, after a few weeks without using my laptop [image] anon81945988: So if you have had the laptop powered on and charging lately then hopefully the ML 1220 is good for a couple of weeks. With these quotes, maybe you can see where the confusion came through…

[image] nrp: There are possible mitigations we are investigating in firmware, like having the main battery “power up” to recharge the RTC battery when the system is unplugged for long periods of time, though over a long enough period, that would result in both the main and RTC battery being empt…

[image] Timm_Lempfer: Alternatively, give us an option for this reset that does not involve fiddling with a fragile battery holder and a fragile main battery connector, that would be fine, too. Press the power button for 45sec with the AC adapter, or something, whatever. I like this idea…but …

Just chiming in to say this just happened to me, again. Laptop wouldn’t power on until connected to a charger, then went through a lengthy boot process, and Windows had forgotten the time (it was two weeks in the past). As a result a lot of web services wouldn’t work presumably because of certificat…

[image] Sando: I suppose I should be thankful I haven’t yet had to do the full mainboard reset routine and interfere with the fragile CMOS battery holder. You’re lucky…for now. Happened to @Christopher_Yarch today: Laptop Fails to Turn On - Community Support - Framework Community

Wanted to add to this thread by saying I’ve also started seeing this issue. I had a flight yesterday and the laptop wouldn’t power on despite fully charging the battery before leaving. Remembering this thread I tried plugging it into one of the USB outlets in the seat, and doing that for just a coup…

What’s the word on this being an issue on the new 12th gen models? I see this topic pop up too much on the forums to not ask.
